PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
It is an exciting time here at Lewis-Clark State College! In fact, excitement is the key word! I have an
exhilarating message to tell – students will receive a quality education for a the lowest cost of any 4-year
school in Idaho. We like to say that, with our small student-to-teacher ratio and all classes taught by
professors, we offer a private school education at a public school cost. Students love that perception
because we set all-time enrollment records for both the Fall and Spring semesters this school year.
Not only has our faculty received national honors, but our former students have as well. Mary OatmanWak Wak, a 2006 LCSC graduate, received the University Continuing Education Association’s 2008
Outstanding Nontraditional Student award. We continue to inspire and be inspired by our students.
We’re also excited with Lori Skelton joining us as the Director of College Advancement. You’ll find Lori to be energetic, engaging, and
enthusiastic, and we’re excited to have her join the LCSC family. Lori comes to LCSC from the Northwest Children’s Home where
she was well respected not only by her co-workers, but members of the community, who are delighted to have her on board at the
college. She is a great addition to lead our Foundation efforts into the future.
Speaking of the Foundation, it’s an exciting (yes, here is that word again) time to be associated with the college’s fundraising efforts.
Campaign LCSC, a $3 million fundraising effort over the past two years, will wrap up in May. It’s been a successful campaign, one
that will take the Foundation to new heights. The money raised will largely be used to help fund scholarships. Also, during the past
six months, we received two gift annuities which total more than $440,000. Our yearly telefund is in full swing as this issue goes to
press with a goal of raising $30,000.
I want to thank you, the alumni and friends of the college, for helping to create these exciting times through your contributions of
time and money. I am truly grateful for what you have done and will continue to do to help our college and our students. It’s a great
time to be associated with the college and its future.
Yes. It’s an exciting time to be here at LCSC!

April and May are full of
opportunities to gather as LCSC
Alumni. We will raise funds
for alumni scholarships and
support the Center for Arts
and History at Grape and Grain
during the Dogwood Festival,
April 18. Get your tickets and
enjoy the silent auction and
taste the finest wine and beer. Volunteers are needed to help
the night of the event.
At our annual meeting on May 14, we will elect officers for
2008-2009 and recognize outstanding alumni and friends of
LCSC. Last year’s award recipients were:
• Excellence in Education - Greg Rish
• Aletha Pabst Award (given to a non-alum) - Mike Ripley
• Marion Shinn Lifelong Achievement Award - Marion Shinn
• Young Alumna Award - Natalie (Munn) Holman
• Young Alumnus - Spencer Branting
• Alumna of the Year Award - Lt. Col. Lillian Martin

for LCSC and our communities. Watch the web site
www.lcsc.edu/alumni/ for the call for nominations.

We will celebrate with the LCSC graduates at the graduation
reception on May 16. Volunteers are needed to plan, set up
and attend the reception.
We will network at Prefunction with the President on May 23,
our kick off to the NAIA Baseball World Series. This event is
strictly fun! President Dene and Dr. Gordon Thomas share
their backyard with us as we enjoy hot dogs, chips, soda and
beer before heading over to the opening ceremonies of the
World Series.
August is the month of the return of our students and the
Warrior Golf Classic on August 23. You do not need to know
how to golf to participate as a player or a volunteer. This
tournament is a joint effort with the LCSC Business Students
Organization and the Warrior Athletic Association. All proceeds
benefit student scholarships and programs.
In September (date to be announced), the LCSC Alumni
Association will host a wine tasting event in the Lewis-Clark
Valley. We also plan to host events in some of our outlying
areas such as Grangeville, Kooskia, Kamiah, and Orofino. We
need your ideas and time to organize these events.
Coeur d’Alene has a great LCSC Alumni group!! Look for dates
of future events in that area.
Call the Alumni Office at: 208-792-2151 to volunteer your
time. Plan to attend as many events as possible and support
other alums. I look forward to meeting you there!
With Warrior Pride,

Director of Alumni
and Community
Relations
Building on our past to create our future.
As executive director of the Alumni Association, I am constantly amazed and impressed by the accomplishments and
generosity of our alumni. It is rewarding to know that so many of you have remained connected to the College by attending
events and through participating in the broad spectrum of activities that occur each year. Many alumni have also taken
advantage of the opportunity to assist with recruiting new students or have offered a helping hand to graduates of all
generations who are striving to reach their professional goals. Though the Alumni Association Board works hard to organize
alumni events and programs, we know that it takes all of us working together to make them a success. This is why it is
important for each of us to share in the gift of continuing our own L-C experience by taking part in the school’s exciting future.
The people featured in this magazine are living testament to the solid education that L-C continues to offer its students, with
whom we entrust our traditions, our standards, and our alma mater’s future.
I hope you use this issue of Journey to reacquaint yourself with your alma mater and it inspires you to come “home” to LCSC
and become an active member of our alumni family.
Warrior proud,
Renee Olsen, Director

Seattle Scientist
Helping Make Medical Advancements
Haley Neff-LaFord is, like many others, hoping one day
scientists can find a cure for cancer. She, however, takes
it to the next level because she is one of those scientists
doing research for a cure.
Neff-LaFord, who graduated magna cum laude and earned
a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry with President’s
Honors from LCSC in 2000, is working for Seattle Genetics,
Inc., in the Seattle suburb of Bothell. Seattle Genetics,
Inc., is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on
the development and commercialization of monoclonal
antibody-based therapies for the treatment of cancer and
autoimmune disease. The company’s strategy is to advance
its portfolio of product candidates in diseases with unmet
medical need and significant market potential.
Neff-LaFord began working as a scientist at Seattle Genetics
in January and has found the job quite interesting.
“About half of my time is spent as a ‘bench scientist’ where I
am in charge of performing the flow cytometric analyses for
the Pharm/Tox program,” Neff-LaFord says. “The other half
of my time is spent learning the ins and outs of regulatory
toxicology. Currently I am responsible for designing and
monitoring studies that test the toxicity of our therapeutic
agents prior to taking these therapies to the clinic.
“This job is very exciting in the sense that I am able to
use the techniques I learned as a graduate student and
postdoctoral fellow while learning a completely different
aspect of toxicology, which is much different from academia.
I enjoy working in the team environment and being able to
be sandwiched in between research and development and
the clinical setting. It has been great seeing the therapies
that have been discovered by colleagues in my company
actually working in the clinic!”
Neff-LaFord, who has been married to her husband Justin
for nearly seven years, says her experience at LCSC helped
shape who she is today.
“I definitely attribute part of my success to attending LCSC,”
she says. “I always knew that I wanted to go to college and
LCSC first helped me achieve this goal by offering me the
Foundation Scholarship. My parents were by no means
independently wealthy, so this was a GREAT gift!!
“As a student, I immediately felt supported and cared
for and I developed a wonderful relationship with my
professors, in fact I still keep in touch with a few of them.
Dr. Christine Pharr (now Dean for Academic Programs) was
the first teacher I remember at LC. She is awesome!! She
made chemistry fun and always challenged me to be my
best. She also gave me “tough love” when I deserved it.”
Neff-LaFord says as a chemistry major, she shied away from
biology classes, until she took an anatomy and physiology
class from Dr. Tom Urquhart.
“I always say that A&P (along with pathophysiology with Dr.
Jane Finan) is responsible for leading me toward the ‘dark
side’ of biology,”
Neff-LaFord says.
“I also give many
thanks to Dr.
(Curtis) Sutton for
his love of organic
chemistry, even
when I really didn’t
like it!
“All in all, I left
LCSC with the
support and
direction I needed
to make the choice
Justin LaFord and Haley Neff-LaFord
to attend graduate
school and I am
forever grateful for my experience at LC. I think the handson science training I received definitely helped me in
graduate school and I had such a different experience from
many of my fellow grad students that had attended larger,
less personal colleges.”
After graduating from LCSC, Neff-LaFord worked as a
summer intern at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
for the Department of Energy. She then started graduate
school in the fall of 2000 at Washington State University.
“My graduate training was in Pharmacology/Toxicology but
more specifically, our laboratory focused on understanding
the effects of exposure to pollutants on the immune
response to influenza virus,” she says After six years as a
grad student, I successfully defended my dissertation in
May of 2006. A few weeks after graduation, I started my
postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Washington in
Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, as part of
the toxicology program.”
She finished the training in January and then went to work
at Seattle Genetics.
Neff-LaFord was born in Elko, Nev., and moved to Lewiston
with her family when she was 4. She considers herself
a native Idahoan and attended Centennial Elementary,
Sacajawea Junior High, and Lewiston High School, all
in Lewiston. She also attended the LC Kindercare for
preschool, although it went by a different name at that time.
She says some of her husband’s family has attended LCSC
and Justin’s uncle is Rollie Hallen, who teaches chemistry at
LCSC.
”I would like to say thank you to all the professors and
staff at LC for taking the time to be invested in the lives of
the students,” Neff-LaFord says. “I think smaller liberal
arts colleges often get overshadowed by large ‘big named’
universities, and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I would
never change the experience I had at LC for one at a larger
institution. It was a pleasure to attend LCSC and if I ever
decide to switch gears and teach - I would definitely try to
come back if they would take me!”

Fond Memories
of Talkington Hall
area. The basement had a large laundry
room – “Nothing was automatic back
then,” Duff said, “...with washing tubs,
lines for drying and ironing boards. It was
always pretty crowded but we managed”
Duff said she remembers that between
50-60 girls resided at the Hall when she
was there. Not all took meal plans to eat in
the dining room because they worked for
families in the Normal Hill area for board
at Talkington Hall.
Dormatory Life in the 1940’s
Lewiston native Josephine (nee Kayler)
Duff fondly remembers her time at
Lewiston State Normal School (now LCSC),
living in Talkington Hall during World War
II.
Talkington Hall was still relatively new. It
was built in 1930 after local residents
raised money to construct the new facility.
Rooms in the new facility were described
to have brown mahogany tables and
Windsor chairs, a closest, different colors
and designs of drapes, and a lavatory.
On the other side of the hall were a
kitchenette and a pressing room.
Duff attended Lewiston State Normal
School from September 1941 through
her graduation in June 1943 when the
institution was a two-year Normal School.
She majored in Elementary Education.
“I was very excited and delighted to be
there,” said Duff, who is now 85, retired
and living in Lewiston with her husband
Gene, 83. “My mother and father brought
me with my belongings and helped me
unload. My mother wanted to see where
I would sleep! I looked about and thought
what fun to spend the next two school
years with this neat place as my home.
Upperclassmen (women) greeted us and
gave us tours of our new home. It would
be a time of memory making and a special
experience that all girls should have.”
Duff said each girl at the dorm was
assigned a “Big Sister” who would help the
new girl adjust to life on campus, with the
school, and with the dorm rules.
Duff said while she was there, the girls
had a 9 p.m. curfew during school nights
and Friday nights, while Saturday was
midnight. The library also closed at 9 p.m.
If there was a special occasion on a Friday,
12
such as a formal dance, the curfew was
changed to midnight. Sunday, the curfew
was 10 p.m.
“The front door was locked, which was our
only entrance, so if we were late, we had
to ring the door bell for the housemother
to let us in,” Duff said, “and of course she
knew just how late we were!”
Duff said the doors on the east and west
ends of the building were fire escape
doors. Students could exit those doors,
but the doors would lock behind them.
Duff said on occasion some students
would sneak out after hours and were later
let into the dorm through the side door by
their roommate or friend. However, she
knew one student who was expelled for
doing this.
Duff said the penalty for being late was
a curfew of 7 p.m. per night for every five
minutes of being late, which was called
“being campused.” She said curfew meant
curfew, no excuses.
Also, quiet hours began at 7 p.m. on
weekdays so everyone could study.
“We all accepted the “rules” without
resentment,” Duff said.
Duff said she shared a room on the
second floor with Evan Coon Skeels. Their
room was on the south side of the hallway
their first year, and then on the north
the second year. Duff said there were
restrooms, showers, and a bathtub on
both the east and west ends of the second
floor.
The main floor of the building included
apartments for the housemother and the
Dean of Women, as well as a reception
“We paid $28 per month for room and
board and those having only a room paid
$12,” Duff said. “There were very few
single rooms. We all had roommates.”
The third floor was the sleeping porch
where the girls were required to sleep
instead of in their dorm rooms
“There was no heat up there and windows
were open,” Duff said. “At times it was
quite chilly, but we wore warm PJs. We were
to make our way to our bunks in the dark
and be very quiet. That is what we were
supposed to do, but being girls, there were
whispered conversations and, of course,
some giggles. We were always to occupy
the bunk assigned to us in case we needed
to be located in the middle of the night.”
From the 1942 Normal School Yearbook:
“Talkington Hall is the home of the girls
who come to Lewiston State Normal
School and who opened their season
serving as hostesses to functions of the
school. Over one-third of the women
attending Normal School lived in the hall.
Most of the rooms are double, so each girl
has a ‘roomie’ with housecleaning duties,
a quarterly job. The girls thoroughly
clean their own rooms, washing windows,
waxing floors, etc. This is done the last
week of every quarter.
There are rules and regulations that must
be abided by, and though there are a few
exceptions, they are fair and lenient so the
girls are happy to cooperate in every way.
There are ‘quiet hours’ for study and
sleep; and then for a few hours in the
afternoon the girls have liberty to have
noisy fun—they often play the grand piano
and sing. The last part of the year they
have rolled back the rugs in the large
living room and danced to the music of
their new radio-phonograph.”
Duff said meals were served in a dining room that was downstairs
in Lewis Hall, where Meriwether-Lewis hall now stands. The
morning bell rang at 6:45 a.m., and breakfast was served at 7:15
a.m. Classes then began at 8 a.m.
“Those who did not have an 8:00 o’clock class sometimes slept
in, but not me,” Duff said. “Our cook, Anna Hand, made GREAT
biscuits.”
Duff said lunch was served at noon, and dinner was at 5:30 or 6
p.m. Prior to each meal, the girls would sing their devotions.
“Each table of eight had a hostess and waiter,” Duff said. Our
dean of women and housemother sat at the head table. We
took turns joining them at the head table. We had some formal
dinners each year. Wednesday and Sunday we ‘dressed’ for
dinner and those nights we invited guests if we wanted to. We
enjoyed these special touches.”
Duff said she has several favorite memories of her time at
Talkington Hall.
“One favorite memory was our Wednesday night house meetings,”
Duff said. “We all gathered in our large living room in our night
clothes and housecoats. Our house mother reminded us of all
the things that we were supposed to be doing, and we sang songs
before going back to our rooms to study and or retire for the night.
Duff also remembers the Christmas season there, along with the
rules for entertaining boys.
“We had a Christmas party each year with carol singing and, of
course, a large Christmas tree,” Duff said. The ‘beau parlor’ was
just to the right as you entered the living room. It was a small
partially enclosed room on the right side of the living room. There
was a fire place, couch and a chair or two. We entertained our
boyfriends in this cozy space. That way they weren’t made to
feel uncomfortable in the main living room with all of those girls
around.
“Gabfests after dinner and before quiet hours were always fun.
I know all of us established life long friendships and have many
fond memories of these special years at Talkington Hall.”
After graduation, Duff taught for two years in Orofino and one in
Moscow. She then gave birth to twin boys, Jack Gilbert, now of
Potlatch, and Jim Gilbert of Richland, Wash.
Duff and her first husband owned a business in Orofino, and after
his death, Duff managed the store. She eventually retired and
moved to Lewiston in 1969.
She has two stepdaughters, Connie Groseclose of Moscow,
and Nancy Blewett of Genesee. She and Gene have eight
grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
Help the walls talk…
Talkington Hall served as LCSC’s Women’s Residence Hall from its opening in 1930 through 2003 when the hall
became co-ed. Residents who lived in Talkington Hall often ask when will it be renovated and re-opened because
their best experiences at LCSC were inside those walls.
Despite the wear and tear, Talkington Hall’s charm is still there, along with the large staircase, the big lobby area,
the old grand piano, and the framed picture of Dr. Talkington. Former Talkington Hall residents still tell stories of the
“ghost” of Talkington to scare others.
The hall operated as a co-ed hall until the spring of 2006 when it was closed in hopes of renovating and re-opening
soon. A study group of students, resident assistants and Residence Life staff was formed to meet with architects in
hopes of devising a plan to renovate Talkington Hall. During the brainstorming sessions, students talked about their
dreams for Talkington and then the design firm asked that each person on the committee rank the ideas. The three
plans each included:
 Interior acoustical upgrade
 Replacing windows with energy efficient windows
 Electronic door hardware (safety)
 ADA Bathroom Upgrade
 Plumbing
 HVAC System
 Secondary Electrical Upgrade – to meet the
requirements for computers, etc.
 Fire Alarm and Emergency System upgrades
 Repairing exterior bricks that are cracked
 Replace flooring
The plans were designed to keep the “dorm room style” while renovating to as close to the original state as possible.
The target for renovation costs is between $4-6 million, and to make this goal a reality, we need your help.
To help with the renovation project, you can give a tax-deductible gift. Please contact the Alumni Office at 792-2151,
or donate on the Web site at: http://www.lcsc.edu/alumni Please make sure you indicate it is for Renovation of
LCSC Residence Halls. If you prefer to mail a gift, please send it to:
College Advancement, 500 8th Ave., Lewiston, ID 83501 Attn: Karen Evans.
If you complete the online form, please indicate your funds to go to “OTHER” and then in the COMMENTS box at the
end of the form, indicate that your donation is for Renovation of LCSC Residence Halls.
We sincerely appreciate any gift you can give, whether large or small. It would mean a great deal to the college and
especially to LCSC students. Thank you!

2006-2007 Foundation Scholars
The LCSC Foundation established the Foundation Scholarship in 1991. The goal of the
scholarship is to attract students who show exceptional academic promise and leadership
potential. To be considered for a Foundation Scholarship, students must have a grade point
average of at least 3.5. Academic achievement, an ability to express oneself in writing, and
involvement in sports, community and other leadership and extracurricular activities all carry
weight on the scholarship application.

LCSC’s Roster of Success
Here are some of the exciting things going on within the divisions at Lewis-Clark State College!
Business
• For its 10th semester in a row, the Business Division has
seen record enrollment numbers. As the number of
students steadily increases, so do the degree programs
offered. The Sport Administration, and Business and
Communication baccalaureate degrees and the new
Marketing minor provide students with a specialized
business focus.
• Division Chair, Randy Martin, and Economics Professor,
Shaomin Huang, served as representatives of LCSC’s
Business Division at the 2007 second Sino-US
International Forum of Continuing Education held in
Beijing, China October 31 through November 7. Professor
Huang was one of five panelists discussing “Trends,
Markets, and Issues Relative to Customized Corporate
Education in China.” LCSC’s Community Programs
sponsored the trip that included several days in both
Beijing and Shanghi. Community Programs facilitated
meetings with numerous colleges and universities to
discuss delivering LCSC courses in China and partnering
with universities to bring students to LCSC.
• Associate Professor, Ruth Lapsley, has been invited
to present at the annual International Assembly for
Collegiate Business Education (IACBE) conference in April
2008. Her topic, “Rubric? You Mean That Cube?” will
instruct participants on how to develop and utilize rubrics
in order to assess course objective. Professor Lapsley
began teaching Management and Strategy and Policy
courses at LCSC fall semester, 2007.
• The Business Division held its 2nd Annual Night at
the Oscars fundraiser on February 24, 2008. The
event, which featured remarkable LCSC student talent,
dancing, a red carpet walk, and formal elegance,
raised approximately $14,000 for business student
scholarships. Nearly 150 people attended this year’s
gala, and the Division hopes this number will increase as
the event continues.
• Associate Professor Randy Eriksen has been recognized
by the IRS for his “outstanding public service contributed
to the community through the Volunteer Income Tax
Assistance (VITA) program.” His VITA class, which
consists of approximately 20 students every spring
semester, provides free tax preparation services for lowincome and elderly tax payers. The course also allows
students to apply classroom theory to real-life scenarios,
and by the end of February 2008, the students had
prepared a record 257 returns.
Professional-Technical
• The annual Northwest Diesel Instructors Conference
will be held on the campus of Lewis-Clark State College
on April 24-25 and will draw college instructors and
diesel professionals from businesses for the free twoday conference. Presenters at the conference already
include Cummins, Western States Cat Dealer, Bendix
Brake Company, Kenworth Sales, Cummins Northwest,
and the University of Idaho Agriculture Department.

underscores the importance of technology training and
development in today’s workforce
Natural Sciences & Mathematics
• The Division of Natural Sciences & Mathematics has
been working with the Design-Build team and the Nursing
& Health Sciences Division on the new Nursing building
project. Presently, the design has new chemistry and
biology laboratory facilities on the second floor. When
these new laboratory spaces are realized, it will allow for
innovative and modern laboratory instruction in support
of the NHS division and our programs.
• The graduating class of 2007 had five Natural Sciences
graduates that moved on to post-graduate education
in health professions. Three graduating seniors were
accepted into medical schools, one into podiatry school
and one into a physician’s assistant program. We are
excited that our graduates are pursuing their professional
goals and helping to meet the upcoming healthcare
needs of the 21st century.
• In an effort to help our students become better prepared
for post-graduate opportunities, two new initiatives are
underway. In fall 2007, a group of students started the
first Pre-health Professionals student organization. Also,
beginning in fall 2008, the Division of Natural Sciences
& Mathematics will offer a 1-credit course in Pre-health
Professions, taught by Dr. Jacob Hornby. This course will
help students research different career options in health
professions, develop their personal statements, practice
their interview skills and give them the resources they
need to be competitive on nationally recognized exams.
• Six junior and senior Computer Science Students
received full travel and registration support to attend
the 2008 PyCon in Chicago (http://us.pycon.org/2008/
about/). This conference will give them broad exposure
to the practicing CS community and they will have the

Honor Roll of Donors 2006-2007
College Advancement didn’t have to look far
for new Director
Lori Skelton hit the ground
running as LCSC’s new Director of
Advancement and already has done
a remarkable job.
Skelton began her new position
on March 3 after an extensive

Northwest Children’s Home Inc.,
where she served as Director of
Marketing and Development.
Skelton is helping the college
wrap up its $3 million campaign
as the college continues to grow
its endowment and scholarship
opportunities.
“We’re excited to have someone
from the community who has so
many local contacts step in and
lead our fundraising efforts,” LCSC
President Dene K. Thomas said.
“Our endowment continues to grow,
and with Lori’s excitement and
enthusiasm, I only see great things
ahead for this institution.”
Skelton has been working at
the Northwest Children’s Home
for seven years and oversaw
the fundraising, development
and marketing efforts. She had
previously worked for Boeing as an
organizational advisor in Human
Resources.
Skelton is a member of the
Clearwater Estate Planning Council
and has provided independent
consulting and strategic planning

classroom. And often, semester grades are written
on the faces of those closest to us: our children,
our spouses and our co-workers.
I know it USED to say: “COME INSIDE TO SEE NEW
MERCHANDISE”. Bad weather, wind and gravity
had edited that message so it was rendered
meaningless.
I am incredibly excited to become a part of the
LCSC Family: the students, the faculty, the staff,
the programs, the alumni and the foundation.
There is nothing that produces clarity like a clear
connection. And making connections is what we
are all about at LCSC – Connecting Learning to Life.
But a connection is always a two-way interaction.
You are the Life that Connects back into the
Learning here – advancing the college’s mission
and scope of impact in the lives of students and
beyond.
I am here because I believe in connections. I
believe in education. I believe in the human
spirit to persevere, to create and to push beyond
boundaries. Life is the teacher. The world is the

Advisory Committees for both
Region I and II.
Thank you for connecting learning to life! Thanks
for your incredibly
generous support, your
humor, your patience and
especially for the unique
energy you bring to LCSC.
I’m looking forward to our
connections.

L-C Alum Enjoys Life Behind the Wheel
Life has been full of change and new
experiences for Kenny Wayne, so it
shouldn’t come as a surprise that
the former Lewis-Clark State College
student in the 1970s and awardwinning artist is again headed in a
new direction.
Wayne, whose bronze sculptures and
clay art work have made him popular
among art collectors in the United
States and abroad, is now specializing
in Raku, a form of Japanese pottery,
as well as metal sculpting.
Wayne now lives in Yarnell, Ariz., a
small town of less than 700 people
located in the mountains of the
Central Plateau. Wayne has an on-site
studio there where he does his work.
Wayne attended LCSC in 1974-77 and
majored in Communications. He was
just short of graduating when his GI
Benefits ran out.
“And I had an expanding family
to support so I had to drop out at
that time,” he said. “And I also was
involved in a business career and
ranching.”
the youngest one, Collette, currently
attending grad school at Purdue.”
Wayne also grew up in a big family of
10 children. He spent his early years
traveling with the circus and living on
a farm in the winter. After graduating
from high school, he joined the Navy
and earned his “Dolphins” and diver’s
certification in the submarine service
during the Cold War. He served off
of the coast of the United States and
also in the far Western Pacific.
He earned the “Warriors Medal of
Valor” honor from the Native American
Nations for his service.
While attending LCSC and after,
Wayne worked on a ranch where he
broke horses for $10 a head. He also
participated in rodeos on weekends,
and worked as a construction
lineman, climbing poles. He eventually
supervised technicians on the top of
mountains as well.
After suffering an injury during a
diving accident, Wayne began working
with Ralph Crawford, a Western
Realist sculptor from Idaho. In 1984,
Wayne moved to California became
a studio assistant to famed sculptor
Max DeMoss, who was one of the
commissioned artists for the Los
Angeles Cathedral.
Wayne later became the assistant
sculptor/foundry instructor at Mount
San Jacinto College in California and
also was the ceramic lab technician.
Wayne also was an assistant sculptor
instructor at Loma Linda University’s
La Sierra campus and taught
wheel throwing and hand-building
techniques.
Wayne served as an instructor at
various educational institutions in
the United States as well as Mexico.
He also has held artist workshops for
sculpting, indigenous pottery, mask
making, pit firing, mold making, and
Raku.
“I still do some consulting and teach
workshops on occasion but mostly am
retired from business and teaching,
and work full time in my own studio,”
Wayne says.
Wayne has participated in numerous
Still, his course work at LCSC helped
him lead him into a publishing career
with a multinational corporation. And
Wayne, who earned an Art degree at
Mount San Jacinto College, eventually
earned his Masters of Fine Arts
degree from Prescott College.
Wayne says he still cherishes his time
at LCSC.
“I absolutely loved attending LCSC
when I was there,” he says. “My
college educational experience
rubbed off on my kids (six). The two
youngest daughters were born in
Lewiston so I think some of the LCSC
spices got absorbed into their genes.
Brigette went to Smith College for her
BA and now has her Masters, with
28
shows and his work has been shown
in several major galleries, including
San Francisco, Palm Springs, and
Tucson.
Last fall, Wayne was awarded a
gold medal in a National Veterans
Creative Arts Festival in pottery for
his work in Sager Firing with clay. He
used collected organic materials and
natural elements mined from the
Arizona Mountains in his work.
He earned a bronze
medal at the
competition in 2005,
and wants all military
veterans to know there
is an art program out
there for them to get
involved with. He says
any veteran interested
should contact

Director of the National
Veterans Creative Art
Festival, at elizabeth.

His current work in Raku makes

is considered the traditional method
for creating bowls for the Japanese

Wayne says.
Wayne has taught

pottery at the Desert

Museum in Wickenburg

artist to teach Raku

Lewiston’s new mayor
Doug Havens, who was sworn in as
the new mayor of Lewiston in January,
has ties to Lewis-Clark State College.
Not only did he grow up in the Normal
Hill neighborhood, he earned a oneyear certificate in Manufacturing
Maintenance Technology from the
institution.
Havens earned his certificate in 1999
after working in the railroad industry.
Havens worked twice for the Camas
Prairie Railroad, the first time in
1979-1984 and then in 1994-98,
before it was sold in 1998. Through the
Idaho Job Service’s Workers Retraining
Benefit program, Havens received
tuition help to attend LCSC.
On March 29, 1999, roughly threequarters of the way through the school
year, Havens accepted a full-time job
with Potlatch Corp., doing shift work. He
says the LCSC instructors helped him by
working around his Potlatch schedule,
which enabled him to earn the one-year
certificate.

mayor instead of letting the seven city
councilors pick among themselves for
their leader.
Havens was born and raised in
Lewiston, but eventually moved to the
Seattle area with Burlington Northern
Railroad. He came back to Lewiston
in 1994. He recently quit his job in
the Consumer Products Division at
Potlatch Corp., so he could devote more
time to his business, Havens Home
Inspections.
After graduating from Lewiston High
School in 1977, Havens worked in the
drywall business for his dad, Ted, or
a couple of years, then went to work
for the railroad, first at Lewiston and
then at Seattle. He later worked for a
container loading company for nine
years running a crane and other heavy
equipment.
“Lewiston is a great place to raise a
family,” Havens told Lewiston leaders
at the State of City address in February.
“It has great schools, great business
opportunities, and great people.”
After moving back to Lewiston,
Havens built a house in 1998 and was
appointed to the city’s Transportation
Advisory Commission that has looked
at such things as traffic patterns, the
need to preserve new travel corridors,
sidewalks and bike paths.
Havens, 48, will earn a salary of
$9,240 a year as Lewiston’s mayor.
Lewiston is one of three larger cities
in Idaho that have a council-manager
Havens is a relatively new councilor as
he was elected to his first four-year term
a little more than two years ago.
Havens first ran for the Lewiston City
Council in 1997 and lost by 79 votes.

Learning is not only alive and well...
it is breaking new ground
On March 7, several state and local dignitaries joined LCSC
President Dene K. Thomas and college administrators to
break ground on the new Nursing/Health Sciences Building,
which will be the new home of the Nursing Division, labs, and
classrooms starting in the 2009 Fall Semester.
Idaho Lt. Gov. Jim Risch, who spearheaded the effort for the
building while serving as interim governor in 2006, joined
Thomas and others with ceremonial shovels to break ground
where the new building will be located, which is directly north
of Talkington Hall and west of the LCSC library.
The half-hour ceremony featured a welcome from Thomas,
comments from Risch, and an overview of the $16 million
project by LCSC Provost Tony Fernandez.
Several groups also were thanked for their work on the
project, including legislative and government officials, the
Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council, the Division of
Public Works, the design/build teams and architects, the
Nursing/Health Sciences Building Steering Committee, and
the Nursing/Health Sciences Public Advisory Committee.
Other comments were made by LCSC Vice President for
Administrative Services Chet Herbst, LCSC Nursing & Health
Sciences Division Chair Lori Stinson, LCSC Natural Sciences
and Mathematics Division Chair Matt Johnston, LCSC
Associated Student Body President Matt Smith, and Lewiston
mayor Doug Havens.
Also demonstrations were held with three life-like simulated
human dummies, who can be programmed to imitate
symptoms of diseases or illnesses. A small reception
followed, also at Talkington Hall.
The completion of the project is expected to be in the
summer of 2009. The building will be fully operational by
August 2009, in time for the fall semester.
The Idaho Legislature approved the funding for the new
building to help offset a national and state nursing shortage.
The building will allow LCSC to eventually double the size of
graduates from the Nursing Program.
McAlvain Design/Build Services won the state bid for the
project and spent the last year working on the design and
functions of the building.
Funding came through last year for an increase in two fulltime nursing faculty members, a lab coordinator and a halftime radiography technology position, which will help the Rad
Tech program continue to grow.
Drawings and architect plans of the site were on display at
Talkington Hall and can be viewed on the LCSC Web site at
www.lcsc.edu.
If you are unable to visit the campus to watch the
construction of the new building, the LCSC Web site will
provide regular pictorial updates.

SPORTSbriefs
Lewis-Clark State College is enjoying
another phenomenal year in athletics
and already has reached new heights
in 2007-08 with 10 sports being
ranked in the NAIA Top 25 at the same
time.
The Warrior volleyball team put
together one of the most remarkable
seasons in program history. LCSC was
picked to finish sixth in the Frontier
Conference in a preseason vote by
the league’s coaches. However, under
first-year coach Jennifer Greeny,
the Warriors won both the Frontier
Conference regular season and
tournament titles, and then topped
that off by winning the Region I title,
defeating Southern Oregon and the
College of Idaho along the way. LCSC
lost to both teams during the regular
season and both were ranked in the
NAIA Top 10.
The Warriors earned their first berth
to the NAIA national tournament
since 1999 and were seeded ninth at
nationals. A 1-2 record at the national
tournament left LCSC with an overall
mark 26-8. It was the program’s eighth
national tournament appearance and
the 26 wins surpassed the win total
combined from the previous three
seasons of 21.
Junior Amile Clemente was named the
Co-Player of the Year in the conference
as well as a first-team Region I
performer and a third-team NAIA AllAmerican. Senior Brittney Kubic also
was a first-team all-conference and allregion selection. Juniors Cintia Alessia
and Julie Maciboba were secondteam all-conference picks and earned
honorable mention Region I honors.
Seven players – Marie Balmer, Dana
Christiansen, Lisa Davis, Brittany Hall,
Brittney Kubic, Austyn Lewis, and
Julie Maciboba earned All-Frontier
Conference Academic honors.
Finally, coach Jen Greeny was both the
Frontier Conference and Region I Coach
of the Year.
In cross country, both the Warrior
men’s and women’s teams dominated
the conference’s initial season of
recognizing the sports by easily
capturing the team titles. The men won
the conference meet with 18 points,
32
while Carroll was a distant second at
62. The men, who had six of the top
seven finishers at the conference race,
also were third at the regional meet.
On the women’s side, the Warriors
rolled to the conference title with 22
points, while Carroll was second at
63. The women had six of the top nine
finishers at the conference meet. The
women also were fourth at the Region
I meet.
Seniors Calin Hantau and Jenny Jensen
of LCSC captured the conference
individual titles
At nationals, both LCSC teams placed
19th overall.
Recently with the winter sports, both
the men’s and women’s basketball
teams won or shared the Frontier
Conference title. For the women, it was
the third straight year of finishing first
in the conference, and the sixth time
overall since joining the conference
nine years ago.
The Warrior men finished in a four-way
tie for the conference’s top spot, but
based on the conference tiebreaker,
LCSC was awarded the top seed in
the conference tournament. It was the
second straight year LCSC has won
or shared the conference title and its
fourth overall.
Both teams reached 20-plus wins
this season and qualified for their
respective national tournaments.
As the spring seasons are underway,
the Warrior baseball team was ranked
No.1 in the NAIA preseason poll. The
team, which is in search of its third
straight national championship and the
program’s 16th overall, lost a number
of players to the draft a year ago, but
again had another successful recruiting
year.
LCSC began the year with 11 victories
in its first 13 games and again should
be the team to beat when the annual
Avista NAIA World Series rolls around
on May 23-30. The Warriors still receive
an automatic berth to the 10-team
double-elimination tournament.
The Warrior tennis teams also appear
to be on their way back to nationals
in May as well. The Warriors have
dominated Region I play and no other
Region I team has finished ahead of
LCSC in either the now defunct-Region
I tournament or the national rankings
during the decade of the 2000s.
During the final weekend in February,
the Warriors played host to the
remaining Region I teams in a roundrobin tournament that basically served
as a qualifier for nationals. On the
men’s side, LCSC swept the University
of Alberta in two matches, while the
women defeated Alberta, College of
Idaho, and Southern Oregon. Because
the highest ranked team from each
Region earns a berth to the national
tournament, it will be hard for any
of those opponents to bounce back
from the losses to LCSC and pass
the Warriors in the polls, especially
because the teams do not play again.
The Warrior men’s and women’s golf
teams both began the spring portion
of the conference schedule in second
place, but still ranked among the
NAIA’s Top 25 teams. Three conference
tournaments are held during the
fall because of the late snow/spring
weather in Montana. The two spring
conference tournaments take place in
Lewiston and Salt Lake City.
Like last year, the Warrior men will
need a strong effort to overtake Rocky
Mountain for the title. LCSC rallied from
nearly 50 shots down last year to claim
the title and will need to make up more
ground this year.
The women are more of a long shot to
catch Rocky this spring, but with solid
tournament showings, the women can
still earn an at-large berth to nationals.
LCSC also added an 11th sport this
spring as women’s track and field is
now a recognized sports. Coach Mike
Collins plans to grow the program
slowly, using cross country runners
at first mixed with a field athlete or
two. Because of its smaller roster,
the Warriors’ goals are focused on
qualifying individuals to the national
meet.
