50th Anniversary Celebration & Community Open House Is TuesdayFoothill College will celebrate five decades of providing quality education to Silicon Valley students at a community open house that features the grand opening of the college’s new Campus Center, Student Services Building, Life Sciences Building and Lohman Theatre. Foothill’s 50th Anniversary Celebration & Community Open House is Tuesday, Sept. 25, from 4 to 7 p.m. Admission and parking are free, and the public is invited to attend.
“We transform lives at Foothill College. These are the first major construction projects at Foothill since we opened the hilltop campus. We’ve watched crews transform concrete, glass and steel into the newest, most innovative instructional and student services spaces in Silicon Valley. For seven years, construction workers and cranes have been doing the heavy lifting. Now it’s time for Foothill students, faculty and staff to do our own version of heavy lifting, by using these new teaching and learning facilities for their highest and best purpose,” said new Foothill College President Judy C. Miner, Ed.D.
The celebration begins at 4 p.m. with remarks from Perkins+Will Design Principal Nick Seierup, who has served as the creative visionary charged with shepherding what the San Francisco Chronicle cited as “the most beautiful community college ever built” into a new chapter of Foothill’s history. Additional speakers include Foothill-De Anza Community College District Chancellor Martha Kanter, Ed.D.; Foothill-De Anza Community College District Trustee Bruce Swenson; Foothill College President Judy C. Miner, Ed.D.; Foothill College Academic Senate President Paul Starer, M.A.; Foothill College Classified Senate President David Garrido, M.A.; and Foothill College President Emerita Bernadine Chuck Fong, Ph.D.
Guests will also have the rare opportunity to view an exhibit of works by eminent landscape photographer Morley Baer, who took numerous photos of the young hilltop campus when it was first constructed in 1961, under the direction of original campus architects Kump, Masten and Hurd.
The order of activities for the Sept. 25 event include:
- 4:30 p.m.—College leaders will lead guests on guided tours of the new Lower Campus Complex;
- 4:30 to 7 p.m.—Guests can view the Foothill in the 1950s photography exhibit in the new Photography Studio in Room 6101 as well as see the Campus Center Construction photography exhibit in the Campus Center Room 2018;

- 5:45 p.m.—The college will screen its 50th anniversary historical video in the Campus Center Dining Room;

Originally built to serve 3,500 full-time students, today Foothill serves more than 18,000 students per 12-week quarter both on campus, online and at community locations such as the Foothill College Middlefield Campus in Palo Alto.
The newly constructed campus buildings were funded by Measure E, a $248 million facilities bond passed by voters in 1999 to renovate existing buildings as well as construct new facilities in the Foothill-De Anza Community College District. In 2006, voters approved Measure C, a 15-year $490 million plan to support more renovations and new construction at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills and De Anza College in Cupertino.
Parking is free for open house events Sept. 25 only. Parking lots 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 provide easy access to the Campus Center. For more information, access www.foothill.edu.
50th Anniversary Photography Exhibit Spotlights Foothill College in the 1950sAs part of its 50th anniversary celebration, the Foothill College Photography Department presents the Foothill in the 50s: Images by Morley Baer, Rondal Partridge, Karl H. Riek, Tony Rose, and Vano-Well-Fagliano Photography, Inc. exhibit Sept. 25 through Oct. 23.
The exhibit’s opening reception is part of the college’s 50th Anniversary Celebration & Community Open House Tuesday, Sept. 25, from 4 to 7 p.m. The exhibit is displayed in the newly renovated Photography Studio in Room 6101. Admission is free.
This collection of original silver prints is part of the Foothill College photographic archive and includes works from several well-known photographers of that time. Working alongside such luminaries as Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, Morley Baer (1916-1995) photographed the California landscape but came to be regarded as one of the country’s greatest architectural photographers. Rondal Partridge (1917- ), son of renowned photographer Imogen Cunningham, worked as an assistant to Dorothea Lang and Ansel Adams. He worked for the National Youth Administration by photographing the Western regions of the United States before establishing his freelance photographic business, primarily in magazine and architectural photography. He extensively photographed the urbanization of California. Although little is written about photographer Karl H. Riek, he participated in the architectural photography of the Marin County Civic Center that was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and compl eted in 1962.
Under the direction of Foothill Photography Instructor Ron Herman, M.A., the Foothill in the 1950s exhibit is by Foothill students Barbara Collins, Gabriel Hernandez, Jan Laskowski, Sofia Laskowski, Gene Mason and Mechthild (Meggi) Raeder-Schikorr.
Parking lots 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 provide easy access to the Campus Center and photography studio. For more exhibit information, call (650) 949-7082 or access www.foothill.edu.
Buy Your Parking Permit OnlineFoothill now offers you a new, more convenient online method to purchase a campus parking permit. Remember that you must display a parking permit at all times at the Foothill Main Campus or a citation will be issued.
Once you have made your online purchase, you may then print out a temporary permit, which is available two days prior to the first day of the quarter. The temporary permit is valid for 10 calendar days from date of purchase only. Display the temporary permit until your permanent cling decal arrives in the mail to the address you specify. You must display the decal at all times or a citation will be issued. A parking permit is not required at the Foothill Middlefield Campus in Palo Alto only. Learn more about Foothill parking regulations.
Important Parking InformationEase on-campus parking congestion by arriving early for your classes and giving yourself plenty of time to locate parking. Follow these tips to locate a parking stall:
When you arrive between 7:30 a.m. and noon, do go immediately to Lot 1H or Lot 7. The Lot 1H entrance is clearly marked and is on the right as you enter campus, just past the entrance to Lot 1; Lot 7 is located on the right just after the fire station;
Do not circle the campus road in search of parking during peak times. By 9:30 a.m., your best option is to park in Lot 1H or Lot 7. All other lots will be filled;
Do avoid the morning traffic backup at the Main Campus entrance by continuing on Moody Road and entering the campus at Lot 7; and
Do remember that all parking regulations are enforced at all times at Foothill College. A parking permit—either day-use permit purchased at the dispensers in parking lots or quarterly/annual permit purchased at the Admissions Office or online—is required at all times. Failure to properly display a valid parking permit will result in a citation. A parking permit is not required only at the Foothill Middlefield Campus in Palo Alto.

NASA Senior Scientist Will Discuss Taking a Hit: Asteroid Impacts & EvolutionAs part of the ninth annual Silicon Valley Astronomy Lecture Series, Astronomer David Morrison, of NASA’s Ames Research Center, will present Taking a Hit: Asteroid Impacts & Evolution, an illustrated, non-technical talk, Wednesday, Oct. 3, at 7 p.m. in the Smithwick Theatre at Foothill College. Admission is free and the public is invited. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis. Arrive early to locate parking.
Asteroids have hit the Earth many times, and they will continue to hit in the future, whether we are prepared or not. Collisions with our planet over 4.5 billion years have profoundly influenced the evolution of life. In fact, were it not for the impact of one 15-kilometer-wide asteroid 65 million years ago, it is likely humanity would not be here.
Asteroid impacts are important for our future as well as our past. In the last two decades we have learned not only how to evaluate the impact hazard but also (in principle) how to defend ourselves. The astronomers operating the Spaceguard Survey of Near-Earth Asteroids have already reduced the risk of fatality from unknown asteroids by at least 75 percent. Unlike other natural hazards, we now have the capability of removing most of the impact risk within the next generation. However, the government still does not have a plan of action for when an asteroid is discovered heading our way or when an impact happens without warning.
One of the world’s experts on the study of asteroid impacts, David Morrison is the senior scientist at the NASA Astrobiology Institute, where he participates in a variety of research programs in the study of the living universe. He is the author of more than 155 technical papers and has published a dozen books, including several widely used college textbooks in astronomy. He is the recipient of numerous awards for his scientific and his educational work, including the Sagan Medal of the American Astronomical Society for public communication. A founder of the multidisciplinary field of astrobiology, Asteroid 2410 Morrison is named in his honor—but he assures us that it is not one of those that might hit the Earth.
The free lecture series is sponsored by the Foothill College Astronomy Program, NASA Ames Research Center, SETI Institute and Astronomical Society of the Pacific. Past lectures from the series are available in MP3-format online.
Visitors must purchase a campus parking permit for $2 (eight quarters). Parking lots 1, 5, 6, 7 and 8 provide access to the theatre. For more information, access www.foothill.edu or call (650) 949-7888.
