An additional twenty parking spaces are " now in operation in A-9, the parking lot directly in front of the Val A. Browning Center. Lee Cassidy, chief of campus security, said that their yearly survey of people who regularly park in this area, resulted in the increase in metered parking. "The majority of those surveyed felt it would make .Siunnu pllolr.'lcll Hvluv it more convenient for them when they visited the library, bookstore or food services," he said. Parking fees will go up by $2 for the coming school year. "A"will be $40 and "B" will be $20. The rising cose reflects inflation and will not be used for anything special, said one of the security officers. The George S. and Dolores Dore' Ec-cles Foundation has donated $125,000 to provide scholarships, fellowships and special nursing instruction to the Weber State College Department of Nursing. The announcement was made by Dean Hurst, WSC vice-president for college relations. According to Reed M. Stringham, Dean of the WSC school of Allied Health Sciences, "The George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Fellowship" will provide release time andor stipends to nursing faculty or experts in allied health fields. He said this will allow them to develop new or refine current methodologies and programs in bedside clinical nursing. Stringham noted that $100,000 would be used to endow the "George S. and Dolores Dore' Eccles Critical Care Instruction Unit" at WSC while $15,000 would go to provide scholarships to deserving student nurses and $10,000 would be used for faculty fellowships in clinical nursing. Stringham said the fellowships will initially be for a minimum of one month and a maximum of three months. They will allow the recipients to address such education needs as hospital and home nursing services, special education needs for nurses in such areas as emergency rooms, critical care areas, rural hospitals and physicians offices.
