Humans of LBCC

Trenton Dutcher

"I am a first year student and I graduated from West Albany high school. Lb so far has been a lot better than I expected it to be. I just expected community college to be down, from what I heard. I'm majoring in business because I don't know what I want to do with my life and business opens a lot of doors. I plan on going here one year then transferring to Oregon State."

"In previous time, I've taken classes through my high school and gotten credits. I'm excited to start college and I'm looking forward to getting to know people in my community and people who are interested in the same thing I am, school wise. I am taking prerequisites in hopes to go to Oregon Techs sonography programs, so I hope I meet people here doing the same thing. In college so far it's been different because I have to be a grownup and deal with more complicated things."

Catan the Board Game Will Have You Hating Your Friends

Courtesy: Flickr Released in 1996, 23 years ago this game will still have you hating your friends. Okay, not actually hating but the competitiveness and need to prove your power is present, as always. Catan the board game. You can play with up to 10 of your friends. The goal of the game is to lay out settlements on the board near as many of different resources as possible. When the die are rolled the resource with that number can be taken, but only if you have a settlement on it. You must get to 10 points worth of settlements to win the game. There’s extra cards in the game called development cards which reveal different tricks that can put you ahead of the pack. Warning! This game can take over an hour to play, but is completely worth it. As you watch other players build and collect resources you get more competitive. The game always stays pretty close in score, so you always feel like you could have a chance to win. There's actually a whole Twitter page dedicated to f...

Week 10 Blog Post

My three goals on my first blog post were 1. I want to commit time to the Commuter. I really hope to get published in the Commuter many times this term and write great stories for them to have. 2. I would like to improve my story writing and how in-depth I work on the stories I write. 3. My interview process as well, I've done many interviews but there's always room for improvement especially with the questions and content I retrieve. My first goal really turned around. Not only did I write stories for the Commuter, I became a photo editor, and I'm really glad I did. I think throughout this term I did improve my writing. I wrote a variety of different feature stories I'd never done before. In the past I only wrote news reporting stories, then this term I got to write columns and reviews, which I'd never done before. On the last goal, I'd say I improved some, probably not as much as I would've liked. 

LBCC Student and Filmmaker Nick Slover

Camera in hand, police badge on chest. The stage is set for the newest episode of "Cops." Behind the scenes is a writer director and filmmaker. Friends agree to act, so he gets to writing the script. His dreams of becoming a movie director start out with the small films shot in backyards of Albany, Oregon. Numerous films around the town have helped this young aspiring director make his name in the town. Watch out, it won't be the last time his name is heard. How did you first get into film making? “I used to film movies with my webkinz and G.I. Joe’s when I was little. When I was 15 I watched ‘Pulp Fiction” and I was like, shoot, I want to do that. So I used a little camcorder my dad gave me to make a movie called ‘The Wanderer’ on a snow day in 2017.” What’s was your favorite film that you’ve made so far? “I guess a remake of ‘The Wanderer’ that I did about a year and a half ago. I’ve never been truly proud, because I know I always need to be better, but I was...
