Join RCC’s Dental Programs in welcoming Trudy Hogg as a new full-time faculty member for dental hygiene.

“Making the community brighter — one smile at a time.”
Trudy graduated with an Associate of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene in 2012 from the OIT/ODS College of Dental Sciences. In 2015, she completed her Bachelor of Science through Oregon Institute of Technology’s Distance Education Program.
After spending time on the East Coast and in Eugene, Trudy returned to her hometown of Grants Pass, where she spent the past five years re-establishing her roots with her partner, Stuart, and their two pups. When not working, you’ll likely find Trudy and Stuart rafting the wild and scenic Rogue River, attending local events or enjoying quality time with friends and family.
In addition to her role with RCC’s Dental Programs, Trudy runs the Instagram and TikTok page @TheRogueHygienist, where she focuses on outreach and education for students and patients. Follow along for an inside look at her exciting and ever-evolving journey in dental hygiene and community health!
These opportunities have allowed Trudy to guide, shape and inspire the next generation of dental professionals as they step into their careers. Now, she is honored to continue this work in a full-time capacity.
Trudy is thrilled to be on this journey with her Osprey family and looks forward to what the future holds at Rogue Community College.
