 Ambron’s visit has been added to a schedule that includes campus interviews for two other finalists for the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµB chancellorship.

 Since its establishment in 1990 as an upper-division and master’s level campus, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµB has graduated 6,000 students in five programs: business, computing and software systems, education, interdisciplinary arts and sciences and nursing. Distinguished for its award-winning architecture and proximity to a wetlands restoration project, it is co-located with Cascadia Community College. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµB has 100 faculty and 200 staff members. In autumn 2006 it became a four-year institution, welcoming its first freshman class.
