Thursday, Jan. 27, 1983 / Kaleidoscope I 8 Engineering - from page 1 this area through expanding ex isting industry and attracting new industry.” Having local access for training engineers or to continue training for employees they already have, would be a significant factor in recruiting new industry to move in here, said Price. UNCA presently has an agree ment with N.C. State University, whereby an engineering student can study two years here and complete his requirements in two more years at State. Several students in this program indicated they would re main at UNCA if a degree program v/ere available to them. Bill Brooks, a freshman engineer ing major, said he thinks the in dustrial engineering program is a good idea but he realizes “it is going to be awhile and a lot of work will need to be done.” Sophomore engineering major Richard Richardson said he will probably go to State but, “If they (UNCA) got a program, I would stay here.” “Some teachers don’t think UNCA has any business taking on such a big program,” said Bill Rogers, a sophomore engineering major. He said he agreed, although when told the plan was to begin with only an industrial engineering pro gram, he said that might work. However, he added that he wouldn’t stay here. “I would rather have a degree from N.C. State.” Elizabeth Alexander, a junior ac counting major whose son is coming to UNCA next fall, sees the program as “a good thing, and needed with so much industry in Asheville.” Highsmith said, “This area is becoming more and more in dustrialized every year and high technology industry depends on engineers.” With the question of funding always a problem, Highsmith said “a specific improve ment in the economy in 1983 would be the best thing for the program.” To WF There are only a few vacancies left for the Bahamas cruise scheduled for spring break, March 12-19.

Encore efforts create campus child care By Elise Henshaw Child care during many campus activities is now available to all students at no charge, because of the efforts of Encore Anonymous, an organization for returning students. Linda Jernigan, coordinator of the adult student office-and advisor to Encore Anonymous, said, “Often even though an activity is free, the baby sitter feels too much," making attendance prohibitive to some students. Encore Anonymous felt the need for child care on campus and includ ed this as part of its budget request to the campus commission (a body of students, faculty and staff before which recognized student organiza tions can go to request funds). Jer nigan said the service began in late October and will continue for the re mainder of the year. She hopes more students with children will take ad vantage of the service. “The more it is used, the more we can show that the service is needed and effective, and we can continue to expand it," says Jernigan. Working within the restrictions of a limited child care budget, Jernigan tries to choose those events that hold the most interest for the people likely to make use of the service. Also the time of the event is con sidered, she said, “so that the children will not be out so late.” The care is provided by two off- campus people who have done baby sitting for Jernigan and in whom she says she has a great deal of con fidence.We try to keep the loca tion of the child care close to the ac tivity,” Jernigan said. The service is free to all students, and there is a one dollar charge per family for non students. The money is used to buy light refreshments for the children.
