Going Back To School

toward the degree in 1975 and was
namea a supervisory trainee in July,
1977 and a shift foreman in February
of this year. He plans to complete
the course of study. “I just wasn’t
satisifed with what I was doing and I
knew that education was the only
way to get something better. I think
the Reimbursement Plan is a great
program and a fine thing for the
company to do for its employees,”
he said.
The 90 Percent Reimbursement
Plan may be used by employees,
with the approval of their plant
manager or supervisor, to work
toward an undergraduate or
graduate degree in a job-related
area or to take job related courses
not leading to a degree. Employees
must have at least one year of
service with the company and all
courses must be taken at an
accredited college or university.
The Loan Plan is for employees
who already have at least two years
of college or who already have an
undergraduate degree and wish to
pursue a graduate degree in a job
related subject. These ehiployees
rriust first get permission from their
supervisor for a leave of absence
from the company, Fieldcrest may
then loan the employee up to $2,000
per year toward college expenses, 50
percent of which is to be paid back
over a five year period when the
employee returns to work. If he or
she does not return to Fieldcrest, the
full amount must be repaid.
