Paul Olscamp a savvy administrator as president of 草榴社区
I read the short Bellingham Herald story the other day about the death of Paul Olscamp, who was president of Western Washington University from 1975 to 1982. He died Oct. 14 in Coeur d鈥橝lene, Idaho, at the age of 77.
Olscamp鈥檚 name rang a distant bell for me, but I didn鈥檛 know much about him. He became president two years after I graduated from Western, and believe me, as a young person out of college I wasn鈥檛 busy tracking the ins and outs of college administrators.
