CGCC Foundation Receives UP Grant For Welding Classes

The Columbia Gorge Community College Foundation has received a $12,000 grant from the Union Pacific Foundation’s “Community Ties Giving Program” to provide critical new equipment for CGCC students enrolled in Advanced Manufacturing & Metals Fabrication.  The grant allows the college to obtain oxy-acetylene tanks and a transport cart for gas welding classes.  CGCC Advanced Manufacturing lead instructor Robert Wells-Clark says the UP grant allows the school to train students to fit into the modern railroad industry.  He adds that industry has extremely competitive wages and excellent benefits.
