In my opinion lecturing is the poorest form of education you can have. So says Dr. Robert L. Capener, professor of physics at Weber Slate College. Dr. Capener said, One doesnt go out into the real world and listen to lectures. One goes out and works. He said it is acutal hands-o- n experience that prepares the student to face the realities of employment in industry. Occasionally you have to read books, he said, but for the most part youre working with your hands and your mind. According to Dr. Capener, WSC has been working under a gran! from the National Science Foundation which has brought, to the school, the quality of computer technology found at Standford, Princeton or MIT." Two years ago WSC received $39,800 from the NSF. With that money," said Dr. Capener, we purchased the equipment necessary to properly teach the new technology of or And this is where Dr. Capener says the program goes beyond just lecturing and demonstrating. It lias allowed us to bring our understanding, along with that of the students, up to where we can with this stuff. I)r . Capener said, Through this project we have been able to put students working on projects that normally they' wouldnt have the opportunity to do. He claims most higher education facilities have the world tipped In universities and colleges, he said, the laboratory is considered to be the least rewarding thing to both students and the faculty. But, lie adds, its the laboratory work that represents ' the real world. The good teacher should know whats going on in the world and provide the student with the proper equipment to do it," lie added. Through this project weve comecloser to understanding wliat industry really needs in terms of a person ... what kind of experience a student needs to be a good employee. 2 ME6 By Pat Rick The charm of Christmas often rests on its familiarity, on nostalgia.

Congress has come up with its budget (ours, too!) for the next fiscal year, and it rounds off to $540,000,000,000. Thats more than half a trillion dollars. Some of us still have problems understanding a million or billion. Amway Corporations Chairman of the Board, Jay VanAndel, recently put it this way, A half a trillion dollars is more than all the money spent by the U.S. government through the first 160 years of its existence. A half a trillion dollars is more than the entire economies of Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom all put together. And for die average family of four in the United, States, a half a trillion dollars means the federal government is costing them more than $170 a week . . . more than $34 for every working day of the year. That's what half a trillion dollars means to us; we're not sure what it means to the folks in Washington. Ellen Goodman, columnist for the BOSTON GLOBE, recendy visited our nation's capital and may have found a reason for the half a trillion dollar budget. She wrote, This is the city where street vendors sell Quiche Lorraine, where a YMCA membership costs $750, where nursery school for a can cost $875 per year. But this is where the government sits and sleeps and vote and stores its sense of values. People here are so busy tabulating the rising rate of real estate at 20 to 40 percent a yev that they can hardly understand the screams coming from the rest of the country about rates of inflation or anything else. That is why correspondent Goodman concludes, half a trillion dollars sounds like just another down payment. Let's see now, a quadrillion dollars. . . . |
