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 />
