On October 23, 2009, City Club welcomed former Oregon Board of Higher Education members Kirby Dyess, John von Schlagell, and Donald Blair.

Appointed by Governor Kulongoski in 2004, they served until 2008, tasked with creating an innovative, entrepreneurial system to stabilize university income and costs. They discussed their experiences and how outdated organizational structures reportedly hindered their ability to achieve these higher education goals.
