TOGETHER YET

Working Toward Graduation

Above right: In her Riverdale hom e, Edith Ehnes w orks at her new computer term i nal. Ehnes cannot commute to D ickinson State U niversity, so she opts for a different program. Dr. Ray W heeler, English professor, teaches her Advanced Com position via computer. T hey correspond with each other through a bulletin board in their term inals; there fore, Ehnes never has to m ake the trek to DSU . She forwards her essays to W heeler on the computer from the convenience of her home. He responds to her work in the same way. T h is program is another way in which D SU tries to meet the needs of students who live outside the logical perim eters of the university.

An Underclassman's Reminiscence by Mary Ramsey

I ca n 't believe th at I'm a ju n io r. It seem ed to take forever to get to th is p oin t. W h e n I first started g o in g to sch ool here the th o u g h t of ju st g ettin g th ro u g h m y fre sh m a n year w as o v erw h elm in g . I rem em b er stan d in g in th e re g istra tio n line b efore m y first seÂ m ester started w ith ab so lu tely no idea of I w an ted to be w h en I grew up. I n o tice on m y sch ed ule card th at th ere w as a line w here I w as supposed to w rite d ow n w h at m y in ten d ed m ajo r w as. Since I d id n't know , I tapped the sh oulder of the g irl in fro n t of m e and ask ed her w h at her m ajo r w as. She said, "S o cial w o rk ." T h a t's w h at I put dow n on m y card . T h en I asked the p erso n in b ack of m e w h at his m in o r w as. H is an sw er w as p sy ch o lo g y . T h a t's w h at I put dow n. For tw o y ears I follow ed th is p rocess. Y o u 're p ro b ab ly w o n d erin g w h y I d id n 't go to m y ad visor to seek co u n selin g in a career ch o ice. I ce rta in ly w ould have, but for som e reason I w as listed as m y ow n ad v iso r. I alw ays agreed w ith m y ow n schedule advice, and I w as easily located w h en I needed to have m y card s signed. I saw n o reason to co rre ct th is o v ersig h t. Y e t look in g b ack I th in k I sh ould have asked for an o th e r ad visor. It m ig h t have saved m e fro m tak in g a sem ester's w o rth of classes th at I d idn't actu ally need. F in ally , th e m istak e w as cau g h t and a facu lty ad visor w as assign ed to m e. W ith th at ad v iso r's help I've settled on g ettin g a co m m u n ica tio n s degree. I m iss n o t v isitin g w ith the o th er people in the reg istratio n lines ab o u t th eir degree ch o ices, but I k n o w it's for the b est th at I n ow have m y ow n goal. M o reo v er, sin ce I've m ade m y ch o ice, m y classes have been m ore in terestin g to m e. I a ctu a lly look forw ard to m y classes each day. N o w all I have to do is find th e tim e to stu d y for th em . Fin d in g stu d y tim e w hile raisin g tw o ch ild ren is ce rta in ly a ch a lÂ lenge. I find th at the b est w ay to fit stu d y in g in w ith being a full tim e m o m is to stu d y to th em . G ran ted th a t n eith er one of th em w as too th rilled w ith the algeb ra bed tim e sto ries, but th e y did en joy the selection s fro m m y literatu re an d speech classes. I also learned to stu d y d ifferen t su bjects w h en I did m y h ouseh old ch o res. For exam p le, w h en I do th e lau n d ry I stu d y m y second lan gu age. I m em orize stru ctu re w h en I'm so rtin g , w ords w hen I'm w ash in g an d d ictio n w h en I'm d ry in g .

Student O rganizations T ak e New Form In the past, student organizations were autonom ous and never joined forces, which cre ated problem s w ith the survival of smaller groups. Last year, the Student Senate began the pro cess of form ing a com m unity of campus associ ations. Jim Ciavarella, director of D SU 's Student Center, has been instrum ental in this project. He said he hopes "th e organizations will w ork together to promote a positive experience for each student on cam pus." Ciavarella remodeled two adjoining rooms in the Student Center's basem ent to function as a work/meeting space for all campus organiza tions. And the Student Senate sponsored the fall A ctivity Fair, which provided incom ing fresh man the opportunity of becom ing acquainted with cam pus organizations.
