Good morning, Corvallis.

The Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls released this week a list of students who earned a spot on the president’s list for winter term—five of whom have ties to Philomath.

The list includes recipients like Richard Bondeson in respiratory care and Lindsey Luke in diagnostic medical sonography, all meeting the 3.70 GPA requirement.

The General used data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety to map red light and speed camera policies across the country—showing that many communities use these systems to reduce dangerous driving while some states ban them.

The analysis explains how Oregon’s rules compare to the national trends.

Yesterday, the City of Corvallis Public Works Department released its annual water quality report—detailing how water is produced, treated, stored, distributed, and tested to ensure a safe and affordable supply—and advised residents to water wisely as summer approaches.
