C/ New Programs To Begin At Gardner-Webb College BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. -Two new programs will will highlight Gardner-Webb’s 1983-84 academic year which begins on Tuesday, August 30. The college’s Degree Program for the Blind will enroll its first blind student this fall, while over 30 students will begin work toward a bachelor’s of science degree in nursing under the col lege’s recently established BSN program. Gardner-Webb’s program for the blind, which was initiated by a $126,209 grant from the Kate B. Reynolds Health Care Trust, offers educational opportunities to visually-impaired students and fully integrates these students in to all classroom and extra curricular activities. According to Nell Kilpatrick, director of the Degree Program of the Blind, the college is already undergoing physical modifications in preparation for the program’s first student. By mid^ptember she says, doors on campus will be labled with braille and texterized mats will be installed in front of all curb cess of establishing a resource room in its library. The room will be equipped with a Perkins braille writer, and braille typewriter among other speciliz- ed equipment. The college bookstore is also being stocked with supplies that may be needed by the blind. Like the Degree Program for the Blind, Gardner-Webb’s Davis School of Nursing is also making final preparations for its recently established BSN pro gram. According to Dr. Janie Calton, diraector of the Davis School of Nursing, Gardner- Webb’s BSN program is unique because it is designed for registered nurses who have earn ed an associate’s degree in nurisng and are interested in continuing their education toward a bachelor’s degree. Dear Dr. Graham: I guess I am just a very mixed-up person. I separted from my husband a few months ago, then got preg nant by another man. Now my husband wants me back again, and is pressuring me to have an abortion. I just don t know how to sort out my life. -D.J.A. carvings. “A large part of the success of the student is his being able to travel around campus,” said Ms. KilpatricJ:. Because mobility is such an important factor in a blind student adapting to college life, an orientation and mobility specialist from the N.C. Services for the Blind will assist in orien ting blind students to the places on campus where he will need to travel independently. “I would like to see the cam pus become a place where a blind student can feel comfor table and as normal as anyone else on campus.” said Ms. Kilpatrick. ‘The student should be able to feel this way as a result of the accessibility to facilities and the training that faculty and staff will acquire in working with blind students.” In addition to the physical modifications being made on campus, the college is in the pro- The program will enable students to complete the re quirements for a BSN at either the Gardner-Webb College cam pus or in Statesville, N.C. Unlike the BSN programs of fered at other colleges, said Ms. Carlton, Gardner-Webb’s “two- plusTwo” program, as it is called, allows for students to receive a greater concentration of nursfng courses during their first two years. While enrolled in *an associate’s degree program, students can quickly determine wheather nursing is right for them, said Ms. Carlton. At other colleges with BSN porgrams, she adds, students do not begin tak ing nursing related courses until their final two years. She also noted that because students entering Gardner-Webb’s BSN program have already earned an associate’s degree in nursing the transfer of college credits is simplified. In addition to the new pro grams beginning this fall at Gardner-Webb, the college will also expand programs already in existence. Dear D.J.A.; You have two problems, actually - an immediate pro blem concerning the child that is growing inside you, and a long-range problem concerning the direction of your life. In a few short paragraphs I can’t say everything I would like to say, but I hope you will find someone you can trust (like a pastor) who can help you through these difficulties. First of all, I hope you will not give in to the pressure to have an abortion. I realize that in some ways that would seem to solve a pro blem rather easily-but do not add still another wrong to the wrongs you have already done. That little life within you is a child, made in the image of God, and it would be tragic to take that little life. It may be that the best choice will be for you to allow the child to be adopted- but that decision should be made only after you have looked carefully at all your options and talked with a counselor who can help you think them through. Second, I am also very concerned about your future-not just in the next few months, but years from now. So far you have been drifting in life, searching for happiness and yet never really finding it. As long as you keep drifting with no real purpose in life, you will always be sub ject to tangled problems like you are facing now. That is why the most important thing you can do is to turn to God and yield your life to Jesus Christ. So far in your Ufe God has played no part. You have lived apart from him, as if he didn’t even exist. But God not only exists-he loves you and wants you to become his child. He wants you to learn the joy of walking with Christ every day, seek ing his will for your life and obeying his guidelines and moral laws. You may not understand everything about God right now, but God loves you and wants you to turn to him for forgiveness and new life. By a simple prayer of faith Christ will come into your heart if you ask him, and he will begin to change your life and bring true joy to your heart.
