Oregon’s Higher Education Coordinating Commission and the Oregon Department of Corrections have entered into a new agreement to continue providing inmates with educational programming through community colleges across the state.
This comes after uncertainty last October when the Oregon DOC said it would be cutting ties with the six community colleges it contracts with. ODOC said at the time that was a move to bring its adult education programming in-house. Corrections officials had said it would help address the agency’s budget shortfall and an inconsistency of services they said the department was receiving through the current contracts.

A couple weeks ago, I wrote a column about the one-room country schoolhouse I attended. I was contacted by a number of individuals with tales of their own country school days.
Sue Klaksvik Ebert wanted to tell her story. It s a story of gratitude and a time in our country when schools, churches and communities were bound together.
Raised on a dairy farm in Otter Tail County, Minn., a fifth generation in Sue’s family is farming the land. She recalls her father telling her, “You’ll always know where you are going if you know where you come from.”
