Photos and Story by

Want to learn more about college budget operations? If so, plan to attend the next Fireside Chat with Sylvania Campus President Linda Gerber and others.

Linda Gerber with John Saito, Dean of Sylvania's Health Programs.

The chats will take place from noon to 1 p.m. in the TLC Lounge on the following dates:

  • Wednesday, Jan. 19 – “Budget 101,” (3-4 p.m.)
  • Monday, Jan. 31 – Open theme
  • Wednesday, Feb. 16 – Bond-funded improvements
  • Monday, March 7 – Open theme

The success of last term’s chats at Sylvania has led to more being booked for the winter 2011 term. The forums serve as a means to engage in conversation with faculty and staff about a variety of topics – to take in questions, concerns, suggestions and feedback. Some are “theme-free”; others will focus on bond-funded improvements for the campus or budget operations.

In the event of questions, contact Kate Chester, Community Relations Manager, (503) 977-8233.
