President Kilchenstein Stepping Down<br />
10-year administration included historic growth<br />
<strong>NHTI</strong> President Lynn Tolbert Kilchenstein has announced that she will step down from her position<br />
at the end of the calendar year.<br />
Kilchenstein has been associated with <strong>NHTI</strong> since 1986, first as a teacher, the English Department<br />
Head, faculty president, and then associate vice president of academic affairs, before taking on<br />
the presidency in 2003. During her 10-year tenure, Kilchenstein has overseen historic growth at New<br />
Hampshire’s largest community college.<br />
Among the developments at <strong>NHTI</strong> during her<br />
presidency was the completion of a three-phase expansion<br />
and upgrade of facilities for the College’s<br />
hallmark allied health programs. The College doubled<br />
the size and enrollment of its Dental Auxiliaries program<br />
with the addition of a new wing to MacRury Hall<br />
in 2009; the College opened the LEED silver-certified<br />
Beverly D. Grappone Hall, a state-of-the-art nursing<br />
education facility, in 2009; and the College completed<br />
renovation of MacRury Hall in 2010, adding state-ofthe-art<br />
labs for its Diagnostic Medical Imaging, Paramedic<br />
Emergency Medicine and Natural Sciences<br />
programs.<br />
Under Kilchenstein’s leadership the College experienced<br />
dramatic growth in its student population<br />
from 5,240 students in the 2003-4 academic year to<br />
a peak of 6,685 students served in 2010-<strong>11</strong>, a 27.5%<br />
increase. She guided the College, known locally and<br />
affectionately as “The Tech,” through a successful rebranding in 2007. Reflecting the evolution of the<br />
College to a comprehensive community college offering degree programs in a broad spectrum of technical,<br />
career and liberal arts fields, the College changed its name from “New Hampshire Technical<br />
Institute” to “<strong>NHTI</strong>, Concord’s Community College.”<br />
Known on campus for her pleasant demeanor, open-door policy and collaborative leadership<br />
style, Kilchenstein established a reputation for ensuring student needs. She nurtured a sense of community<br />
that encouraged growth, innovation and a personal approach to student learning and service.<br />
“It is time for me to explore some of my other interests and to participate more fully in family matters,”<br />
says Kilchenstein. “It’s an appropriate time to move on as the College enjoys numerous talented<br />
and emerging leaders; a highly creative community of teachers and staff; a relevant and rigorous academic<br />
curricula; solid enrollment and a well-deserved reputation for excellence.”<br />

How Green Is LaValley<br />
Over 30 students and four instructors from the IDS (Interdisciplinary Studies) 101-STEM took a field<br />
trip last Wednesday (Oct 2) to the LaValley Farms corn field in Pembroke, NH, to learn about GMO<br />
(genetically modified) seed.<br />
Chris LaValley has taken it upon himself to educate the public on what he sees as the value of<br />
GMO corn. He would like to use GMO seeds for his corn, which would save time, money and labor<br />
while reducing the burden of chemical herbicides and pesticides. He does not, however, because<br />
he recognizes that consumers are not open to buying GMO corn. He also explained his opposition<br />
to HB 660, a bill currently in the House of Representatives that would require all farmers to label<br />
GMO crops.<br />
After a hayride out to the field, students learned of some of the<br />
complexities of farming and the issues around pest and weed control.<br />
They then had the opportunity to ride on the corn picker, and<br />
many in the group enjoyed the delicious corn from LaValley Farms.<br />
IDS 101 is one of a number of<br />
three-credit classes being offered<br />
this fall that satisfy General Studies<br />
and Liberal Arts students' first-year<br />
experience requirement. It combines<br />
a science topic with proficiencies<br />
from the first-year experience<br />
curriculum, such as time management<br />
and career research, and the<br />
concepts of mindfulness, such as<br />
being present in the moment and<br />
monitoring emotional responses.<br />

Paul Holloway, chairman of the CCSNH<br />
board of trustees, said, “We are grateful to Lynn<br />
for her many years of service and leadership at<br />
<strong>NHTI</strong>, and for the important role she has played in<br />
advancing the mission of the Community College<br />
System of NH. She has been a passionate and<br />
eloquent advocate about the vital role the community<br />
colleges play in our society, for students,<br />
their families and communities. During her tenure<br />
as president, <strong>NHTI</strong> became an integral part<br />
of its community and served tens of thousands of<br />
students who become the economic and civic lifeblood<br />
of our State as a result of the opportunities<br />
they pursued at the college. We will miss Lynn<br />
as a colleague and as a champion for <strong>NHTI</strong>, and<br />
wish her well in the next phase of her life.”<br />
The CCSNH board of trustees is responsible<br />
for developing a plan to recruit the next president<br />
of <strong>NHTI</strong>. An interim appointment will be made<br />
while a search is underway.<br />
As President, Lynn Kilchenstein also led the<br />
College through a successful NEAS&C Commission<br />
on Institutions of Higher Education (CIHE)<br />
reaccreditation. With an environment of encouragement<br />
and innovation, <strong>NHTI</strong> has continued to<br />
maintain excellence with solid, rigorous programs<br />
in engineering technologies and health, while expanding<br />
new liberal arts offerings, such as Visual<br />
Arts, with hybrid engineering programs such as<br />
Animation and Graphic Game Programming, and<br />
with innovative teacher education conversion programs<br />
for post-baccalaureate adults.<br />
Kilchenstein served for eight years on the<br />
Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce Board<br />
of Directors, was a founding member of the Red<br />
River Theatres<br />
Board, was a<br />

<strong>NHTI</strong>’s Sycamore Community Garden is gearing<br />
up for its annual Pre-Registration and Garden<br />
Clean-Up, and we could use everybody’s help!<br />
On Saturday, October 19, from 9 am to <strong>11</strong><br />
am, the Garden’s 138 gardeners (and their families)<br />
will come to the garden to fill out their registration<br />
forms, pay their plot fees, and clean up<br />
their plots for next season. This is a big day for<br />
gardeners and the planning team alike, as all are<br />
excited to secure plots for the upcoming season,<br />
allowing for gardening much earlier in the spring.<br />
We could sure use some help on what will be a<br />
busy morning!<br />
Pre-reg Day involves tasks ranging from assisting<br />
gardeners with their forms, escorting gardeners<br />
to their plots, supporting clean-up efforts,<br />
disseminating garden information to gardeners,<br />
and collaborating with the cultural liaisons. We<br />
can do none of the work we do without the generous<br />
contributions of our community’s volunteers<br />
– that’s YOU! Let us know if you can come to<br />
help! Bring your kids! Bring your friends! Bring<br />
your class!<br />

Theft is often a crime of opportunity, and most<br />
often occurs when people leave their vehicle<br />
windows cracked, or their doors unlocked with<br />
valuables in plain sight. Remember to secure<br />
your belongings, especially those of value,<br />
in a secure place that can be locked, like a<br />
glovebox, console or even the trunk.<br />
Books, stereos, laptops and book bags<br />
are all highly valuable and can be resold within<br />
a moments notice. If you have electronics,<br />
document the serial numbers of your devices<br />
and label all your property in an unique way<br />
which only you can identify to the police!<br />
