Welcome
Mr. Newhouse recently retired as Dean of Library & Online Learning at Oakton Community College. His responsibilities included administration of the college's library, the Koehnline Museum of Art, and Distance Learning (Online learning, hybrid learning, and interactive video classes), but now he enjoys his free time. He is an avid supporter of intellectual freedom and privacy as well as the right of students to learn and their responsibility to do so to the best of their abilities. He sees the role of technology in learning as an exciting an empowering tool. He also believes in using all available tools. Mr. Newhouse has been active in the library and distance learning world. He has held the office of President of NILRC (a consortium of community college, college and university libraries), was a member of the Coordinating Committee of the Illinois Cooperative Collection Management Program, the Steering Committee of the North Suburban Higher Education Consortium, and the Executive Committee of the Illinois Association of College and Research Libraries. He even has a follow-up web page to detail some of his travels. In his spare time, Mr. Newhouse speaks in the first person... I enjoy reading, carpentry, gardening, bonsai and, most of all, my son. We lost his mother within the past year so we are rebuilding how our family works. Luckily, his interests also run to old books, classical pop music, Medieval studies, neuro-psychology, museums and the "wonder of it all" so we can have the most tremendous of times together. We miss his Mom, but we live on. PS we have a household with about a dozen muscical instrumets, a few thousand books, CDs, and DVDs . |
