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."

Colitis survivor Brody Johannesen

As he sat in his hospital bed, Brody Johannessen wondered, why me? What is wrong with me, what did I do to deserve this? Weeks later looking in the mirror he saw someone he didn’t recognize. Someone who didn’t know where to look next or how his life would change. 80, 90, 100 pounds up on the bar. Now the only goal is to push the next rep. LBCC sports science major Brody Johannessen was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis the summer before his senior year of high school. Not knowing if he would ever play the sport he loved again and how his life would change because of it. “It was soul crushing, because I found out right before I had Linfield camp and wasn’t sure I was going to be able to play football that year,” said Johannessen. Now, he smiles as he enters the gym, carrying a notebook with the day’s workout plan. The gym is where his time now belongs. When not hanging out with friends having a game night, brody goes to school full-time and works out regularly. “Lifting was a big part

Why was James Charles at the Met Gala?

Courtesy: Eonline Why was James Charles even at the Met Gala ? First, you might not know who James Charles is, I’ll explain. He’s a famous makeup artist who makes money and got his fame from social media and Youtube. He is in the new “famous people” category called influencers. These are basically people who promote things over social media in efforts to get others to follow along or buy a product. Next, you are probably wondering what the Met Gala is. This is a prestigious event in which all the A list celebrities attend for a fundraiser in honor of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York City. This year there was over $15 million raised. It is held by Vogue and supposed to be one of the hardest events to get in. There's a waiting list on top of a waiting list. So again, why was James Charles there? Surprisingly he got invited. He has some ins to being surrounded by the A list group of celebrities. He was the first male face of Covergirl. B

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.
