What Is The Continuing Education Center?
By Cheryl M. Brown
The center for Continuing Education, under the direction of Dr. Marje
Jefferies, is located inside the main entrance gates. Its purpose is to provide
several programs designed to help adults cope with constant charges in
society.
People who have received their degree five to ten years ago, feel the need to
take courses to update their education. The short courses, workshops,
seminars and conferences are geared to presenting broader perspectives into
personal and professional activities. The courses are selected by an advisory
counsel after examining the educational needs in the community. The
objectives are determined by the university. Courses for.credit and non-credit
courses are provided according to individual purposes. Course description
and fees are discussed at registration.
Continuing Education has several programs, among them are educational
mainstreaming, workshops and computer courses for teachers of the gifted
and talented, speech and language developmental workshops, foreign
language courses, law enforcement programs, clerk proficiency courses, mid
life crisis workshops, courses for the elderly, effective parenting, and how to
get a job. The extensive list of courses offered are mobile, and classes are.
provided throughout North Carolina.
In 1973 the Board of Trustees at FSU officially ignited the division of
Continuing Education. In March 1976 the Center for Continuing Education
was built. The first week-end college in North Carolina was developed at
FSU under the division of Continuing Education. Funds were provided for
six years through a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Company of Battle Creek,
Michigan.
The broad spectrum of activities in Continuing Education is “What's
Happening.”

Where Is The FSU Spirit?
By Kenneth McNeil
Students choose the school he or she would like to attend; therefore, they
should participate in the school activities of the university. If students don't
involve themselves in school activities there can't be any progress. One may
say that there isn't any spirit because everyone isp/t up to ihe standards it
shouM be, it's ncl jusl ihc players or coaches but the students, as well.
Students are taking the school spirit for granted. But why are the students
taking school spirit for granted? Everyone complains about the teams not
winning any games. But are these people taking the time and effort to help the
program out? Due to the lack of participation from the students, the Booster
Club which is designed to enhance the school's spirit, is not able to do their
jobs. What's wrong Broncos? It's past time for the F.S.U. family to pull
together.

assistance). Many other AFROTC is a worth while organization, according
to C/Cpt. Kowalski “and the university newspaper should keep students
