‘Exhilarating, inflammatory, and brave’
Alum’s art show casts light on Vietnam War
"Many of these Vietnam vets are not well known as artists" - John Olbrantz
by Darlene Obsharsky
WWU alum John Olbrantz, deputy director of the Whatcom Museum of History and Art, has brought
an exhibit to Bellingham that has gotten a lot of media attention. Even Newsweek magazine sent an art critic to the show’s premier.
“A Different War: Vietnam in Art” is the first major national exhibition of American artwork influenced by the Vietnam War. After the Bellingham show, which ends Nov. 12, the exhibition begins a two-year national tour.
For the past four years, Olbrantz and Lucy Lippard, New York art critic and contributing editor for Art in America magazine, have been collaborating on the project.
The show features 108 works by 54 artists and spans the late ’50s to the present. It is divided into three sections: “In the World” — protest art done at the time of the war; “In Country” — art produced exclusively by Vietnam vets; and “In Retrospect” — art by younger artists who experienced the war’s after- math.
Newsweek described the exhibit as “nrx)re moral than aesthetic. It confronts us with images that a generation’s remove can’t easily dismiss.” A Seattle Post-Intelligencer article summed up the show as having something to “rile and move nearly everybody.” It praised the Whatcom Museum for originating and opening the show and questioned, “What Seattle art institution has done anything this exhilarating, inflammatory and brave?”
The idea for the exhibit came to Olbrantz while driving his car from Seattle to Bellingham. Listening to “I’m Fixing to Die Rag” by Country Joe McDonald and The Fish on the radio prompted him to start thinking about his college years at WWU and the Vietnam war.
“I was not aware of any political art being done during that time,” he said. I started to think about what influence, if any, the Vietnam War had on American art.
In 1985, while he was director of
the San Jose Museum of Art, Olbrantz and Lippard began working on the project. Lippard was politically active during the ’60s and ’70s and was aware of artists from the Vietnam era.
At first, artwork from that era was considered, including the work of Vietnam vets. Later in the process, work by younger artists who used Vietnam imagery to address current social issues was included. Olbrantz recalled that the most difficult process was finding artwork by Vietnam vets. “Many of these Vietnam vets are not well known as artists,” he said.
During a two-year period, more than 250 works of art were considered for the exhibit. The number of male and female artists, the ratio of white to minority artists and the balance of the three sections of the exhibit were considered in the selection process.
Securing financial support for the project proved to be a problem, Olbrantz said. Grants provided a
major portion of the budget. Corporations would not provide funds, claiming the exhibit did not match their corporate profile because it was too political and too controversial. Only one private foundation, which choseto remain anonymous, provided funds.
Media response, however, has been extremely positive. Olbrantz said he’s been contacted by The Seattle Times, Art Week, Reflex,The Weekly and Art in America concerning reviews.
Olbrantz, 39, was bom in Tacoma and raised in Bellingham. He received a bachelor’s in art history from WWU in 1972 and a master’s in art history from the University of Washington in 1976.
After volunteer work at the Bellevue Art Museum, he was hired as its first director in 1976. He stayed there for 10 years.
In 1985 Olbrantz became director of the San Jose Museum of Art.
After San Jose, he returned to Bellingham as deputy director of the Whatcom Museum of History and Art.
A self-described ’60s idealist who grew up having heroes like Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King,Jr., Olbrantz said he considers “A Different War” to be his most significant exhibition. He likes to use subjects from the past that the public has yet to deal with or resolve and he hopes that audiences will learn from these showings.
A three-tour Vietnam vet called Olbrantz to talk about his reaction to the exhibit. Olbrantz recalled the conversation.
“It was an incredible exhibit for me,” the vet said. “I spent two to three hours there. It was confrontational and disturbing. It made me cry.”
Then he thanked Olbrantz.

Alum Club, Western Fund can aid WWU excellence
by Jean Rahn_____________ Executive Director of The Western Foundation
This fall, WWU alumni are being offered the opportunity to support the university through two vital programs. Both move Western Washington University towards its goal of becoming one of the finest undergraduate universities in the nation.
The foltowing explanation of the difference between the two projects hopefully will encourage alumni to support both.
The Alumni Club ProgramThe WWU Alumni Club is an alumni dues program that allows the
Alumni Association to fund reunions, regional gatherings, legislative networks, alumni publications, and an extensive benefits package.
As the mainstay of alumni funding, the dues program enables the association to stay in touch with WWU alumni throughout their lives. Through the Alumni Association, alunrs are able to maintain the personal ties that were so important during their college years as well as enjoy the educational and cultural benefits WWU offers today.
The Western FundThe Western Fund is the annual giving program of The Western Founda
tion. During October, more than 35,000 alumni will be contacted by letter and phone to support Western Washington University.
Tax-deductible gifts will fund student scholarship, faculty enrichment, research equipment acquisition, curriculum enhancement, and other projects designed to further strengthen academic quality at WWU.
Donors are encouraged to support academic areas of their choice or to give unrestricted gifts for the benefit of the overall institution. A primary goal of the Western Fund is to give all alumni the option of contributing to university programs having the most significant past or present meaning in their lives.
As you plan your giving priorities this fall, remember Western Washington University. Buy an Alumni Club MenA>ership and make a donation to the Western Fundi

Alumna celebrates 108th birthdayby Darlene Obsharsky
A lot of things have changed since Euphemia (Effie) Stirling Wright Speirs went to school.
Now when a woman gets married she doesn’t have to quit her job as a teacher. Concrete sidewalks and asphalt roads have replaced those made from planks of wood.
Rent and monthly expenses for a college student now greatly exceed the $3 a month that students paid in 1900. WWU was called New Whatcom State Normal School then, and Effie Graham was called Effie Speirs.
It has been 88 years since she first walked down the halls of Old Main. On Aug. 18, Effie celebrated her 108th birthday.
Effie was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1881. She was 7 1/2 years old when her family moved to New Whatcom in Washington Temitory. Her father, George Speirs, started the first daily newspaper in Bellingham Bay, “The Daily Bulletin.”
After graduating from high school she attended New Whatcom State Normal School (WWU) from 1901 until 1902 and in 1926 she returned for additional classes.
On New Year’s Day, 1903, Effie married John A. Graham, her childhood sweetheart. Their first house was at 1211 Canoe Street (now Commercial), where her son George was bom. During that time, Indians often came in their canoes and camped on the beach a few
yards from their home. Often the Indians would sell baskets to local residents. George, a spry 85, still has some of those baskets.
George described his mother as a very active and giving person. Some of her hobbies included oil paintings, collecting cut glass, painting and firing fine china, and photography.He has kept all the diaries that his mother wrote over the years.
George visits Effie every day for lunch at Alderwood Convalescerit Center in Bellingham, where she has lived for the past 11 years. He says that although she can’t communicate verbally anymore, she smiles at people who greet her, and can sure let him know when she doesn’t like something.
WWU Alumni Board sets annual budget
The WWU Alumni Association Board of Directors approved an annual operating budget of more than $47,500 at its annual summer planning session, held this year in Leavenworth, Wash.
In addition to the budget work, the WWU Alumni Board identified funding and activity proposals for the coming year, including the underwriting of six full tuition and fees scholarships for WWU students during the 1989-90 academic year.
Other priorities that emerged during the session were: continuation of a strong legislative support program for WWU; increasing the number of dues-paying members of the WWU Alumni Club to 5,000 in the next few years; conducting a raffle to enhance the Alumni Board Scholarship Fund Endowment: increasing Class Reunion Activity; building more educational endeavors into Alumni Association-sponsored events: sponsoring a lecture series; creation of an Alumni admissions recruitment team; and increasing scholarships available to disadvantaged students, to name just a few.
The board has now assigned responsibility for a number of these efforts to the various committees of the WWU Alumni Association Board of Directors. •

Fairhaven graduate learns job fastby Darlene Obsharsky
Some people think the first day of a new job is the most stressful, but Dr.
Frank James knows it’s thesecond.
During his second day as Whatcom County public health officer, James had his hands full when his office launched a massive immunization campaign. In August, a food Stocker at Haggen Foods in Bellingham was diagnosed as having hepatitis type A, potentially exposing 30,000 people.
“I had to sit down in my chair,” the Fairhaven College graduate said. “Every health officer hopes this never occurs.” He credits his predecessor. Dr. Phillip Jones, with leaving a fine-tuned organization for him to take over. The emergency created an opportunity for James to get to know the staff in a matter of weeks, rather than months.
James said he was amazed at how positive and patient the community was during the first day of the nine-day campaign. Some
people had to wait in line for up to four hours for an inoculation. Haggen took financial responsibility for the immunizations, and many organizations, businesses, clinics and individuals volunteered supplies, personnel, food, communications equipment and other sen/ices.
Prior to this effort, in which 25,000 were immunized, the biggest such
campaign in Washington involved 5,000 people and was conducted by two health departments.
Before coming to Bellingham,James spent two years in New Mexico where he ran the health services on a Navajo Indian Reservation.
The 38-year-old alum has considered Bellingham his home ever since he came to Fairhaven College in 1969. He received a bachelor of arts degree with a concentration in social psychology from Fairhaven in 1973, and did graduate work at Boston University. In 1976 he returned to WWU for premedical studies. In 1984 he received a medical degree with honors from the University of Washington. •
Grads successful, busy, study reports
Most recent WWUgraduates are busy juggling careers and, families, and many complain they
work too much.That is one of the conclusions of a
report issued earlier this year that summarizes WWU’s first five-year follow-up survey of graduates. The 1987 study polled exiting seniors, 1982 graduates, and others who left without graduating in 1982. The project was undertaken by WWU’s Office of Survey Research under the direction of sociology associate professor Carl Simpson.
Other findings for the class of ’82: •More than half of the graduates
were married; 30 percent had young children. Most married graduates (88 percent) had working spouses.
•Only 1.9 percent of those polled were unemployed and seeking work, and only 3.6 percent chose to remain outside the labor force. Nearly two-thirds of the positions held were classified by the U.S. Census Bureau as managerial or professional.
•More than one-third said they worked more than 40 hours per week. Working overtime was rrrast

Brenda Johnson wanted to be a positive role model for her three children. Being divorced, uneducated and
working at a seafood processing plant just wasn’t going to do it, she said.
Two years ago she began attending Northwest Indian College (NWIC) in the hope that education would create a better life for her family.
This fall Johnson begins her junior year as a transfer student at WWU. She plans to graduate in June,1991, with a bachelor’s degree in social work.
Johnson is one of many NWIC students benefiting from WWU’s new programs aimed at achieving cultural diversity in higher education.
WWU began accepting associate’s degrees and liberal arts transfer credits from the six-year-old college in March. Prior to the new policy, students had to be cross-enrolled through the county’s only accredited two-year college, Whatcom Community College (WCC).
Northwest Indian College, established in 1983 as Lummi Community College by the Lummi Indian Business Council, is a non-profit institution serving the Native American community.
“The council saw the need to reawaken the possibilities of higher education in people who had given up the idea,” said Carla Johnson, dean of the college. “By putting the college on the reservation, they made it safe to learn again.”
The Lummi reservation, located five miles west of Bellingham, is a community of approximately 3,000 native Americans, many of whom have experienced a lifetime within the area’s strong cultural influences. Prior to the college’s initiation, higher education options were rarely utilized by the area’s native population.
“It’s a common thing for people to feel foolish outside of their environment,” Carla Johnson said. “Many just don’t go, or go and return right away.”
it is a goal of the college to create a transitional step between the com-

munity and outside higher learning institutes. Students become familiar with college procedures, such as cultivating learning skills and obtaining financial aid, in an environment that is culturally familiar, said director of student services Juanita Jefferson.
“It is an excellent stepping stone,” Brenda Johnson said. “Earning my associate degree while still on the

formerly Lummi Indian Community College, the institution changed its name to reflect its more regional emphasis, said NWIC President Robert Lorence.
In June, 1988, the college received word that It had received candidate accredits'^. tion status from the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges. The school has until 1992 to create a liberal arts studies program that fulfills the General University Requirement (GUR) standards of the association.
This recognition paved the vray for a closer reiadon^ip with WWU, including transfer of ccdi^e-ievel credit, utilization of the transfer associate degree and facuity- to-facuity communication.
In an official ceremony on March 29, Wctstern President Kenneth P. Mortimer presented a letter of commendation and cooperation and pledged to support NWIC in its furdter development.
"By extending the privileges of full accrerdta- tIon we are showing confidence In diem based on what they have accomplished thus fer,” said WWU Associate Director oi Admissions Calvin Mathews. ”We hope we can help speed ^ dfe [accreditadon] procTOS by hd{di^ th«n devMcf) mcve ^ograms.” •
reservation gave me an inner strength.”
The coilege offers a blend of courses that emphasize the native American heritage and values. In conjunction with basic reading, writing, math and computer courses, the students can learn how to weave baskets, speak the traditional Lummi ianguage, silk-screen Indian designs and build canoes.
“By making the classes culturally relevant, we show them they can retain their culture and obtain a college education at the same time,” Carla Johnson said.
The school is attended almost exclusively by native Americans. Many are single mothers who need an education to get themselves out of poverty, Carla Johnson said.
The college also attracts students who are right out of high school, searching for direction, and the more traditionai indians who use the cultural courses as a way to experience their heritage.
WWU recognizes the vital role the college plays in meeting the higher education needs of native American students, said WWU Associate Director of Admissions Calvin Mathews.
Programs that heip students become nrore familiar and comfortable with the University have been devised to encourage NWIC students to transfer to Western and obtain four-year degrees. By directiy accepting their credits, the University hopes it will make the students feel they are as welcome as transfer students from any other college, Mathews said.
“The programs had a great impact on me, especially the services available,” Brenda Johnson said. “The way financial aid was readily and willingly given to me was comforting.”
The greatest impact the new programs will have is in cultural awareness, Brenda Johnson said.
“Thanks to the programs, people will see the contemporary Indian does not shoot bows and arrows,” she said. “We are right here — sitting beside you in class and competing for the same jobs. People will learn to appreciate rather than discriminate.” •
Parks advocate chronicles battles to keep wilderness
An outspoken advocate for the national parks for over 30 years, Michael Frome has been called “the voice
of the wilderness” and the “conscience of the national oarks.” His new book. Conscience of a Conservationist: Setected Essays, just published by the University of Tennessee Press, is a collection of writings by the nationally known author, speaker, educator, and environmental activist.
The essays, previously published in the 1960s and 1970s, address environmental challenges to the American landscape, forestry, ethics, pacifism, education, social justice and freedom of expression.
In a pivotal chapter, Frome also chronicles his dismissai as conservation editor of Fieid and Stream Magazine and offers a critical assessment of the media’s coverage of environmental issues.
In the book’s forward. National Parks and Conservation Association President Paul C. Pritchard writes, “[The book] is a record of past battles for the environment that deserve review and remembrance, it is a modei of how to win and how to take the losses without quitting. In some ways I like it best as revealing the constant commitment of one man, dedicated to the betterment of the worid through his own seif- responsibility.”
As Tom Bell states in High Country News, the material proves that “as the environmental crisis deepens, Frome is sure to take an eminent place as one who correctly called the shots.”
Frome’s other books include 1989 National Park Guide, Promised Land, Strangers in High Places, Battle for the Wilderness and Whose Woods These Are.
He has received the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Award, Thomas Wolfe Memorial Literary Award, and 1981 Best Magazine Article of the Year Award, presented by the American Society of Journalists and Authors.
Since 1987, Frome has been teaching environmental journalism at WWU’s Huxley College for Environmental Studies.

Software donated to tech department
4D Graphics, Inc. of Renton, Wash., and Prime Computer, Inc. have donated eight
copies of Personal Designer mechanical design software and one full year of telephone support valued at $80,000 to WWU’s technology department.
Interim technology department Director Dick Vogel said the gift will enable students to have access to mainframe quality software on IBM PS/2 Model 80 personal computers. Installation was completed July 5.
Former WWU student Jim Merrick, now Extended Support Services Manager at 4D Graphics, helped make the gift possible. Merrick said it was his research into computer-aided drafting systems while at WWU that led him to his position with 4D Graphics five years ago, when CAD was an exploding industry. He will provide technical support to the department during the coming year.
The gift is part of an educational grant program through which Prime and 4D Graphics are placing 1,200 systems valued at $7 miWorri at institutions of iiigher learning nationwide.
IBM recognized
IBM was recognized in July for an innovative program that resulted in the creation of the Western
Educational Software Tool (WEST) Center and brought personal computer availability to new levels at VA/VU.
IBM selected WWU five years ago to develop instructional software and supplied the university with nearly $1 million in personal computers plus other support. Corporate representatives Patricia Day, Mary Pat Griswold and Peter Dean accepted plaques in honor of the three-year project.
President Kenneth P. Mortimer said IBM nriade a significant contribution to raising the quality of the undergraduate experience. Most of the 192 computers provided under the agreement are housed in student labs, including a lab in the Ross Engineering Technology Building, where the presentation took place.“IBM has a serious commit
ment to education,” said Day. “We look fonvard to continuing the partnership.”

academic attairs at Colorado State University in Fort Collins. At CSU he also served as executive director of the Presidential Leadership Program and for 10 years had been
director of El Centro, the Hispano- American Studies Program and Hispanic student services. He also was a lecturer in CSU’s departments
of education and sociology.
In 1987-88, Estrada served as thefirst Hispanic mayor of Fort Collins and prior to that was assistant mayor, responsible for budget and finance committees and the city communications system. He was a Fort Collins City Council member from 1985 until March, 1989.
“Larry is an exciting choice for this position because he has really lived a multi-cultural experience, especially In his role as mayor," said Saundra Taylor, WWU vice president for student affairs. "He has a high level of energy that's infectious — when you talk with him, you are
engaged and stimulated."
Estrada holds a bachelor’s degree in speech and journalism from the
University of California, Santa Barbara (1968), a master of arts in education degree in education administration from Whittier College (1974), and is a doctoral candidate in international and comparative education at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Erica Littlewood has been selected as coordinator for WWU’s China Teaching Specialist Program. She succeeds Maida Kennedy-XIao, who left this summer for family reasons.
Littlewood holds a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in history from Whitman College in Walla Walla, and has done graduate work in Chinese studies at the University of Washington’s Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies. She served as an instructor and program assistant with the CTSP this year and was an English instructor at Yunnan University in China during 1987-88.
George A. Pierce assumed the duties of vice president for business and financial affairs on July 1. Listed in the 1987 Who’s Who in the American West, Pierce is formerly vice president for university planning
at Seattle University.
Pierce succeeds Peter Harris, who assumed the post on an interim basis following the Nov. 4, 1987, plane crash which took the lives of then-President G. Robert Ross, Vice President for Business and Financial Affairs Donald Cole and Vice President for University Advancement Jeanene DeLille.Harris has resumed his former position as director of WWU’s physical plant.

What’s New at WWUScience building plans presented
Award-winning architectArthur Erickson presented plans for WWU’s new $51.8 million science facil-
lity on Friday, Aug. 11 in a packed Environmental Studies building lecture hall.
Erickson presented preliminary site plans for all three phases of the project, as well as schematic design drawings for phase one. The $22 million building, slated for completion by spring 1993, will house the che.iDiStiy depfirjipent
Phase two will house the biology department by late 1994. Phase three is slated to house science education programs and lecture halls by mid-1996.
All three buildings are proposed for construction on a ridge west of the Ross Engineering Technology Building and Arntzen Hall, creating a quadrangle on the south end of campus. Phases one and two are designed to be connected via a skybridge.
The project’s total budget includes design, construction and equipment costs. Funding has been secured from the Legislature through construction of phase one and design of phase two.
The complex will upgrade WWU’s science facilities, now located in Haggard Hall, built in 1961.
Internationally renowned architect Arthur Erickson faces the ridge on WWU's south campus where the three-phase science fadlity he designed will be located. The Vancouver,B.C. native is known for his university and urban complexes, including Simon Fraser University and the University of British Columbia Museum of Anthropology.
Tech students design toys
Kyle Roe seems oblivious to the attention of his mother, Patty, as he listens to sounds in ‘The Ear,' one of four learning modules designed and built by WWU technology students for developmentally delayed children. Technology professor Marvin Southcott, who supervised design and construction, looks on.
The Center for Early Learning (WCEL) recently received playground-scale educational toys for its children with
special learning needs that were designed and built by WWU’s technology students.
In April, technology professor Marvin Southcott’s junior industrial design class donated four modular component prototypes that encourage the center’s 25 children to touch, see, hear and move. Ranging from infancy to 3 years of age, the children may have Down’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, fetal alcohol syndrome or any of the other developmental disorders listed under state guidelines.
WCEL was able to have the modules custom-built, instead of
ordering out of a catalog, because of a grant from Fratelli Ice Cream Corporation of Seattle and the center’s $10,000 Preschool Prac- ticum Placement grant from the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Huxley professor helps processor recycle waste
Fprofessor Richard Mayer of ■ Huxley College received a ^$31,126 grant from Harper
Owes, a consulting firm in Seattle, to study the “living filter.”
The living filter is the application of food wastes to an agricultural site, an alternative to the standard processing of wastes in a sewage treatment plant. Mayer will study the use of food wastes from Bellingham Frozen Foods on an agricultural site in Ferndale.
“Bellingham Frozen Foods estimates it will be significantly less expensive to apply their food process wastes to an agricultural site with spray irrigation than to hook in to the new secondary treatment plant which Bellingham is going to build.
“We’ll be able to see the actual impact of using that site as a food waste disposal site,” Mayer said.
Mayer said he wili aiso study the water and soii quaiity of the agiicul- turai site and the surface water streams and ground water characteristics. He estimates that the actual use of the site would begin after 1990.

Last year, Suczek served as chair for the Senate Ad Hoc Committee on Affirmative Action and as vice president of the Faculty Senate.
Engineering tech programs earn national accreditation
Two of WWU’S engineering technology programs recently were granted national accreditation that may mean
a significant increase in starting salaries with major empioyers.
in August, the Technology Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology approved WWU’s manufacturing engineering technology (MET) and electronics engineering technoiogy (EET) bachelor’s degree programs for accreditation, effective for students who graduated in 1988. Both EET programs — the daytime Bellingham campus program, and the nighttime North Seattle Community College campus program — have been granted the new status.
Technology professor David Werstler said starting annual salaries wiil get a $5,000 to $9,000 boost at companies that recognize accreditation, such as Boeing, because graduates will be coli- sidered engineering technologists, not technicians, qualifying them for higher-level pay scales. It also will increase the number and kinds of placement opportunities availabie, he said.
Engineering technology (ET) is a discipiine that combines engineering theory with practice to produce graduates with a practical orientation. Over the past 20 years, the number of such programs has increased dramatically across the nation in response to industry demands.
Higher education at the engineering technology level is relatively new to the state of Washington. There were no accredited ET programs prior to 1986. New programs at state- funded regional universities were started after 1985 when it was discovered that major employers were recruiting graduates from universities with similar programs out-of- state.
More information can be obtained by calling WWU’s technology department at (206) 676-3380. •

fillA cjolden tribute
Ed school designated Woodring College of Education
Paul Woodring — retired WWU professor emeritus, former WWU interim president, and nationaiiy recog
nized expert on education — wiii be formally recognized this fall for his innumerable contributions to his field when WWU’s School of Education is designated the Woodring College of Education.
Public ceremonies slated for Nov.17 will commemorate the event, a fitting tribute on the 90th anniversary of the opening of New Whatcom State Normal School — and the golden anniversary of Dr.Woodring’s service to Western Washington University.
Dr. Woodring came to teach at the Western Washington College ofEducation in 1939 because he liked the small-college atmosphere. After leaving to serve as an information and edycation officer on the staff of Gen. Douglas MacArthur during World War II, he returned in the fall of 1946 to a rapidly growing campus.
In the midst of the changes, Dr. Woodring was busy teaching, writing and actively sharing his views on education. A 1952 piece published in Harper’s and titled “An Open Letter to Teachers” attracted the attention of a McGraw Hill editor, resulting in publication of a book titled “Let’s Talk Sense About Our Schools.”
Dr. Woodring’s views quickly drew national notice, leading to an invitation from the Ford Foundation in 1956 for him to serve as an education advisor and consultant to its Fund for the Advancement of Education.
He accepted, moved to New York City, and eventually served in a joint appointment with the Saturday Review as education editor. That arrangement lasted through the '60s, with Dr. Woodring completing six years as education editor and four years as editor-at-large for the magazine.
He returned to campus in 1962 under an agreement that enabled him to continue working half-time for the Saturday Review and half-time
R6sum6 / Fall 1989
as a faculty member at what became Western Washington State College. He served as interim president during 1964-65, and taught at Fairhaven College for three years before returning to the psychology department.
Between his return in 1964 and his retirement in 1986, he authored numerous books, essays and articles. His work was published in the Journal of Higher Education, Yale Review, Life, Harper’s American Scholar, the New York Times, Science, Phi Delta Kappa, the Chronicle of Higher Education, and a host of other journals.
His work did not go unnoticed. He received five honorary degrees (from Kalamazoo College, Coe College, Ripon College, Bowling Green University and the University of Portland). In 1985, he was the first of only two recipients ever to be awarded the Distinguished Educator Award by WWU’s School of Education. Gov. Booth Gardner was the otherrecipient.
Upon his retirement in 1986, WWU’s Board of Trustees cited him as a distinguished service professor.
That year, he and his wife Jeannette established an education scholarship fond to proVide awardS^ of $1,500 each to students “of superior academic talent” to prepare themselves for public school teaching. Since then, the awards have been increased to $2,250 and a total of 33 students have received Woodring support for their educations.
Dr. Woodring’s financial support culminates a lifetime of dedication to teaching.
“His scholarship and all of his writings have been directed toward improving education as a profession through the enhancement of excellence,” said Dean Larry Marrs.
“Woodring stands for excellence in education,” Marrs said.
Reception and dinner will honor Woodring
Paul Woodring will be the guest of honor at a reception and dinner to recognize the dedication of the Woodring College of Education on Friday, Nov. 17. Alumni and others interested are invited.
The ceremonies will be held in the Fairhaven College O’Keefe Room. The reception will run from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.; the dinner program will begin at 7:30 p.m.
Price for the dinner is $15 per person; there is no charge to attend the reception. Tickets for the dinner must be reserved by Friday, Nov. 3 by calling (206) 676-3042.
Centennial State atlas illustrates progress
Washington: A Centennial Atlas will be rolling off the presses this fall. A project of WWU’s Center

illBanquet honors ’51 team Hall of Fame honors 4 former WWU athletes
Walt Ewing couldn’tbelieve his eyes. As he crouched down at his defensive tackle spot for
a fourth-down play in the fall of ’51, he saw teammate Dick Pangallo lined up outside of him instead of inside where he normaliy would be.
Seconds later, Pangallo broke through the Eastern Washington line and blocked a punt. On the sidelines, Ewing asked what was going on. Pangallo said he had played with one of the Eastern blockers in high school and knew he wasn’t very good. Pangallo knew the punt could be blocked from the outside, so that’s where he went. Under coach Charles ’’Lappy" Lappenbusch’s straight-line philosophy, the Vikings did'what they thought needed to be done, rather than do what they had been told.
"I let the players use their heads instead of having them use mine," Lappenbusch said. ’Theirs are closer to their bodies."
Lappenbusch and the 1951 football team returned to campus Oct.13 and 14 to be honored for their achievements as probably the most dominant team in the school’s history for both offense and defense.They were joined by athletic depar-
ment staff and senior football players Friday evening for a banquet honoring the team, which held an 8-1 record and finished in a three- way tie for the Evergreen Conference title. On Saturday, they were introduced during half-time at WWU’s game against Willamette, and presented with a plaque.

Four former WWU athletes have been selected as the 14th class of inductees into the Viking Hall of Fame.
They are Willis Ball (1953-56), Pat Locker (1976-70) and Everett "Tye" Tiland (1947-50), all of whom played football, and women’s basketball player Charmon Odie (1974-77).
Odie, Locker, Tiland and Ball’s mother Evelyn James were recognized at a brunch at the home of WWU President Kenneth P. Mortimer on Sept. 23 and introduced at halftime of the Vikings’ football game versus Western Oregon that afternoon at Civic Stadium. The formal induction took place following the game in the Hall of Fame Room at the Viking Commons Dining Hail,»-«>-~ on campus.
Since the WWU Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 1968, 55 athletes, coaches and athletic administrators have been honored for bringing recognition to their alma mater.
Willis Ball earned honorable mention Associated Press Little All- America honors in 1955 as a defensive tackle. The first black graduate of WWU in 1956, Ball also received honorable mention United Press
International All-Coast and All- Evergreen Conference honors in 1953.
A football co-captain in 1954 and 1955, Bail was a finalist for Whatcom County Sports Man of the Year honors in 1954.
Ball died on April 9,1987, shortly after his retirement from the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation.
Pat Locker
Pat Locker is the only player in Northwest collegiate football history to reach the 4,000-yard mark in career rushing, finishing with 4,049.
Picked to three All-America teams and named the college offensive player of the year for the state of Washington in 1979, Locker set 12 school records, including most yards rushing in a game (225) and season (1.340). The Femdale High School graduate ran for 100 or more yards in a game 21 times during his career.
Twice Whatcom County Sports Personality of the Year and WWU Athlete of the Year, Locker was a fourtime Little All-Northwest, NAIA District 1 All-Star and All-Evergreen Conference selection. His jersey.No. 24, was retired by the WWU Athletic Department.
Charmon Odie
Charmon Odie was the first woman selected Western Athlete of the Year, being accorded that honor in 1976. Aiso the first Viking women’s player to score 1,000 career points, she still ranks among WWU’s top 10 in points (1,038) and is the school’s career leader in steals (273).
Odie, who was named to area and regional all-tournament teams in 1976, held 11 school records when she graduated.
Everett Tiland
Everett "Tye" Tiland was a second- team AP Little All-America pick as a middle linebacker in 1950, helping then Coach Charles Lappenbusch’s Vikings to a 7-2-1 record. He was a two-time All-Evergreen Conference Choice.
Also a two-year letter winner in baseball as a third baseman, Tiland graduated from Arlington High School. He coached and taught for 31 years, 26 at Anacortes High School, before retiring in 1984. •
