The Test of Time

Interim

In the wake of the departure of Tom Ford, the TCC Board of Trustees announced the selection of Dr. Robert Rhule to serve as interim president. Rhule, who previously served as Director of Occupational Education and held the first chair in the humanities department, was well respected by students, staff and faculty alike. “My job should be to keep things moving without implementing severe changes,” Rhule told The Challenge in October 1974.

The College was in serviceable shape when Rhule accepted the interim presidency. The bitterness of the strike, though not completely forgotten, was largely dormant. In fact, the protracted budgetary crunch faced by the College banded staff, faculty and administration together in austere solidarity. “Money problems have stripped us to the point of all working together,” said a confessional Ford during his final interview with Tacoma Review.
