Genius stroke right here in the weird news capital PORKYS REVENGE: And just when I thought all college hijinks had come to a screeching halt. Seems some young person among us was caught leering through a peephole in the womens showers last week. Hear he was red as a beet after being caught, too. Now isnt that the way you should be when literally getting caught with your pants down? Haul out the stockade. Out with the shackles. An eye for an eye. Because if youre going to peep, youve got to be smarter than to leave the light on. Oh well. 86 THE COMMERCIAL: Dont you just hate that insipid commercial for some local auto dealership where a rap doles out the 86 those 85s? Gag me with the fuel pump!

PARTING SHOT: Dare To Be Dull Meeting at Follctts Bookstore, Tuesday at 2:06 cancelled from lack of interest A junior student, who wished not to be identified, said once youre in the program, its a struggle to get through. Ive been in the program long enough to not be pushed by the faculty or the dean when it comes to class requirements. Ive checked, double checked, even triple checked my classes to make sure they fill the requirements." The program is totally subjective: there is no objectivity, she said. A common problem that students have is scheduling and the amount of faculty members available to adequately teach courses more than once during the year. According to a senior student, who wished to remain anonymous, and was planning on graduating this spring, one instructor asked the student to drop her class because she was not performing sufficiently and would have to retake the course. This particular class will not be offered until next fall, which furthers her plans for graduation. According to some students they have problems with exams that are based on textbooks used in previous courses. Sometimes exams are not written for new textbooks, but rather instructors choose to use previous exams on old texts and outside material. This requires students to use current as well as past textbooks and other sources for exam preparation. "Westminsters program is demanding, yet the help and attention are there if you need it. Personally and academically , said Jennings. Westminsters nursing school is a hard program to get through. What we do is create fine g students with a faculty, said Steffen. We truly know our students. They are competent and are able to function well in the nursing field.
