ICC Students Want
More Classmates
Isothermal Community Col
lege student Wanda Waters told
the Polk County Board of
Commissioners Monday that
more students arc needed at the
Polk campus.
Although enrollment has been
increasing overall, the college
dropped its day classes on the
Polk campus due to light
enrollment.
Waters and some other stu
dents "arc talking to everyone
who will listen," said ICC
Polk campus director Carole
Bartol.
Barlol said courses need at
least ten to 12 students before
the college considers them
worthy of being kept on the
course schedule. Some classes,
such as chemistry and computer
sciences, will always be offered
only on the Spindale campus
because the college cannot
afford to duplicate the expen
sive equipment needed on the
Polk campus.
But Bartol said she believes
the students' awareness efforts
can increase class sizes in most
subject areas at ICC's Polk
campus.
Meet Thursday
Tryon Valley Chapter 411
will meet Thurs., May 21 at 5
p.m. at the Lodge Hall on
Markham Rd. Sister Louise
