Page 6 The Voice September 30,1981 Pre-School Growing By Vernita Hammonds FSU’s Pre-School Lab has added a new program for infants 6 weeks to 24 months old. This brings the age range of pre-school care to a span of 6 weeks to 6 years old. The Day Care Center is headed by Dr. Nancy M. Sampson, who has un der her supervision teachers with degrees in Early Childhood Education. There are also OIC and CETA workers on the staff, FSU work-study students, and local high school childcare workers. The Center has a regular planned curriculum for all age levels. In ad dition to a wide variety of educational materials designed especially for their learning experience, the children are taken on field trips, and they also have a swimming program. Both infants and toddlers have on- the-floor time. Through the use of mirrors they can get acquainted with their facial features plus experience social contact with each other. Dr. Sampson says that the children are ad justing well to these learning techniques. The school is very well equipped and bathroom facilities are designed for toddlers to be able to use by themselves as part of their learning experience. The children are served a full breakfast every morning, lunch and an afternoon snack. The Center is also helped out by very active parent groups. A fund-raising drive netted $3,500 from which a van Drama Presentation was purchased for the Center’s use in transporting the children on various trips. The Day Care Center is a self- supporting activity. Tuition is $110 a month for ages 2 to 6 and $145 a mon th for age 6 and $145 a month for ages 6 months to 2 years. Operating hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The Center’s services are open to the public. Enrollment applications at the Center may be obtained at the office in the Mitchell Building. Little Broncos (Photo by Patsy Cortez) Short Eyes By Emanuel Vaughn, Jr. The Drama Department will be presenting a play written by Miguel Pinero en titled Short Eyes from Nov. 10-15. The play, (which stars an all male cast) is a very energetic story which deals with the social system in a prison and how the immates of the prison react to the many different situations they are faced with. This will be the first time a play of this nature will be staged at the University. Mr. Elliot Moffitt, Director of the play, says the language and personality of Short Eyes are harsh and realistic. Subjects such as homosexuality, pride, honor and death will be expressed in graphic detail. Still, Short Eyes has a certain amount of humor which adds a lighthearted flavor to the play. While discussing the plot of Short Eyes, Mr. Moffitt seemed very excited about it saying, “I’ve acted in many theater and movie productions, but there’s something special about this one.” Mr. Moffitt has had roles in the popular movie, Abby and a play by Tennesse Williams entitled The Battle of Angels. He is a graduate of North Carolina A&T and received a master’s degree in! theater from New York University. Admission for FSU students is free. Group rates are offered for other Fayet teville Schools. For more information contact Mr. Moffitt at 486-1443. This play depicts the lifestyle behind bars as it REALLY IS. It would be a crime to miss it.
