Maintaining a Campus
Submitted by Bruno Orsetti
District Services
I have been both an employee and a student at Chabot. I worked 10
years at both colleges. I was with the very first group of Chabot
students that met together at the cafeteria on the new temporary
campus at San Leandro with portable class rooms. We were greeted by
Mr, Jack Fishbaugh (Dean of Student Services). He told us,"You are
the first students of Chabot to meet together." We had to take the
entrance test.
That year NASA launched the first rocket into space with a monkey on
board. Dean Fishbaugh said "We wonder what the monkey thought as he
flew up. Perhaps he wished he could have enjoyed a banana".
Later, as a new employee on the new campus at Hayward, during the
holiday class recess, we celebrated by eating a Christmas dinner in
the cafeteria, with classified and administration members all
together.
I graduated from Chabot with my parents and dear wife and three
children present, and my neighbors partied with me.
