Historical Note
Institutional Advancement was first established as Information and
Publications in 1968, three years after the college was founded. The department
was primarily responsible for publishing the college catalog, class schedule,
and program fliers; media relations; and promotion of local funding
elections.
Larry Romine had helped Bert Dotson, the first assistant to president,
with information and publications for the first three years of the college
before the department was established. He was appointed as the first director
of Information and Publications in 1968.
In the mid-1970s, responsibility for the coordination of local
funding elections was transferred to Information and Publications, and the
department changed its name to College/Community Relations in 1975. In
addition, the department was given responsibility for Printings and Graphics,
Grants, and Development Fund in the 1980s. The name was again changed to Public
Relations/Foundation in 1984 and finally to Institutional Advancement in 1986.
In 2000 the department was placed under the President's Office and was renamed
Marketing and Public Relations.
The first director of the department, Larry Romine, served from 1968
until his retirement in 1992. Diane Dann, publications coordinator in the late
1970s, then publications manager and associate director in 1984, became Larry
Romine's successor and served as director from 1992-2002.
Biographical Note
Larry Romine was director of Institutional Advancement from 1968 to
1992.
Romine received his B.A from Midland University in Nebraska and his
M.A in journalism from the University of Oregon. He worked as a reporter for
The Eugene Register-Guard where he was a strong advocate for community
colleges. He joined the staff of Lane Community College as a journalism
instructor in 1966 and became the first director of Institutional Advancement
in 1968. Until his retirement in 1992, he worked primarily in public relations,
media relations, marketing, elections, and presidential communications.
Romine is the author of Lane Community College: The Parnell Years.
He served on the Lane Board of Education from 1997-2001 representing
Zone 1 in the western part of the college district. He was later appointed to
the Board from Zone 5 in 2002 and served until his resignation in 2007.
Biographical Note
Diane Dann was director of Institutional Advancement from 1992 to
2002. Previously she was publications manager from 1979-1984 and associate
director from 1984-1996.
Dann recieved her B.A. from the Medill School of Journalism at
Northwestern University in 1967 and her M.A. in journalism from the University
of Oregon in 1982. Before coming to Lane, she held positions in communications
