[OR_Archaeology] Clatsop Comm. College starts Hist Pres Program

[Susan White]

Clatsop Community College will start a two year field-orientated historic preservation program this fall. 

The program will prepare individuals for work in the building trades with an emphasis on the preservation and restoration of historic and vintage residential and commercial buildings. The program will offer both practical hands-on construction techniques and historic preservation theory. Students will gain the knowledge, skills and work habits to successfully plan, then renovate and/or restore structures in
historically accurate ways utilizing both traditional and modern materials and techniques. Graduates will be able to work as subcontractors and general contractors specializing in renovation and historic preservation.

Those interested in the program can contact Clatsop Community College for more information or visit
