COA news and information
; ELIZABETH CITV-A speical pro
gram begun last fall throughout the
' North Carolina community college
system is giving College of The Albe
marle faculty members new opportu
nities to become better teachers.
; When the academic year ends on
June 30, some 17 COA instructors will
[have participated in retraining activ
ities that encompass 12 teaching
areas ranging from English to auto
' motive mechanics.
' "College officials say the Tier I pro
gram will help to improve the profes
sional quality of faculty. This, in turn
say state and local administrators,
wi|l give students extra benefits from
an-educational standpoint.
aThe program's goal is to improve
professional competencies and tech
nical training," explained COA dean
of instruction Norman Norfleet, "but
the real benefit for students will be
more impact in the classroom be
cause of their instructor's upgraded
knowledge and skills."
The Tier I project was funded by a
$1.2 million allocation from the N.C.
Legislature to the N.C. Department
of Community Colleges. COA re
ceived $10,763 of the allocation to
implement its faculty development
plan.
. Hie money is being used by 17 full

turn to industry for retraining, to at
tend special schools and certification
workshops, and to engage in special

CJiemistry and physics instructor
Bobby Adams is one of those who has
taken the opportunity to expand his
teaching range. Adams completed a
graduate physics course at the Uni
versity of North Carolina at Chapel
fc ?
k ? _ _ _
Hill.
"The course provided additional
background in the areas of electric
ity, magnetism, and modern phys
ics," said the instructor, "and of
fered many historical aspects of the
subject that are not usually pre
sented in traditional physic courses."
Adams will use the information to
make physics "a bit more interest
ing" for the non-science major at
COA who is required to take physics.
Wilma Harris, director of associate
degree nursing, plans to incorporate
information she acquired at a na
tional nursing convention in Dallas,
Texas into two nursing courses she
teaches at COA. "It will help me to
better-prepare our graduates for the
realities they will face as new RNs,"
she said.
The expansion studies involve 12
curriculum areas. These include:
Electrical installation and Main
tence; Machinist; Drafting and De
sign Technology; Air Conditioning,
Heating, and Refrigeration; Asso
ciate Degree Nursing;

Commission seeks endangered
species list law
The N.C. Wildlife Resources Com
mission is seeking legislation that
would create an official state list of
animals that are endangered, threat
ened or of special concern in North
Carolina.
Currently, people with interest in
the welfare of wildlife use a federal
list for information on endangered
and threatened species. A bill now
under consideration by the N.C. Gen
eral Assembly would allow the Com
mission's Nongame Advisory Com
mittee to name members to a
scientific council which would be
composed of wildlife experts. Those
experts would develop and use stan
dard criteria for identifying and plac
ing animals and birds in the three
categorie? endangered, threatened
or special concern.
Debbie Paul, manager of the Nong
ame Section of the Commission's Di
vision of Wildlife Management, said
such a list would provide a better
way for North Carolina to study ani
mals of particular interest to the
state.
"We have animals we need to be
concerned about that aren't on the
federal list," she said. "There are
several unofficial lists of rare ani
mals around, but we don't have one
that was defeloped under scientific
review or using standard criteria
"We're at a stage where the nong
ame program is really on its feet and
we're ready ot go beyond the federal
list and work with rare species of
particular interest in North Caro
lina."
Such a list would also help devel
opers and planners protect wildlife
by maintaining their habitats.
"This is not to inhibit development
or progress," Paul said. "It wil give
us the information to determine
which animals we need to focus on
and study the animals that need to be
protected. Then, we could help plan
ners and developers so their action
won't harm these species."
An endangered species list would
require no new money, although it
could eventually attract grants.
"Actually, it would put contribu
tions to the Nongame and Endan
gered Species Program to its best
use," Paul said. "It would be a too to
help direct our work.
Some animals already considered
endangered in North Carolina in
clude the peregrine falcon, the bald
eagle and the eastern cougar. Ani
mals considered to be threatened in
clude the loggerhead sea turtle and
the piping plover.
Scholarships offered
Applications are being received for
five Rotary Foundaton scholarships
valued at $12,000 to $15,000, each of
which will pay all expenses for a year
of overseas study and will be
awarded by Rotary District 771 to ap
plications from northeastern North
Carolina.
Four categories of scholarships are
available: graduate, undergraduate,
teacher of handicaped, and journa
lism.
Applications must be made
through a local Rotary club. In the
Hertford area, information is avail
able from Rotarians of Hertford.
Application forms may be obtained
from Dr. Roy Lindahl, 305 Clayton
Rd., Chapel Hill, N.C. 2765}4. Dr. Lin
dahl is Rotary Foundation chairman
for District 771.
This year, District 771 is sending
six students to other countries for
study, with expenses paid through
Rotary Foundation scholarships.
Eight students from other countries
are enrolled at UNC-Chapel Hill,
Duke, and N.C. State.
Prior to departure, students are
provided an orientation program un
der direction of Dr. A. Berry Credle
of Chapel Hill to prepare them for life
in overseas communities.
During their year of overseas
study, a recipient is provided with a
Rotarian counselor. Scholars often
speak at Rotary clubs and before
other groups in the country they visit.
Counselors also are named to work
with students prior to their departure
for overseas study.
The Rotary Foundation, which is
funded by contriutions by Rotarians
around the world, provides over 1,200
scholarships for overseas study each
year, more than any other foundation
in the world.

Hospice volunteers named
Katherine Sawyer from Currituck
County and Irene Belangia from Pas
quotank and Irene Belangia from
Pasquothak County have been cho
sen as co-volunteers of the month of
April 1987. It is wonderful that the
Hospice program has such dedicated
volunteers that two persons were
able to be selected last month.
With all the work Mrs. Katherine
Sawyer does in her church and com
munity, she still finds the time to
serve diligently as a Hospice volun
teer. Mrs. Sawyer works with Dr.
Spruill's office in Elizabeth City so
her patient was in Pasquotank
County. This allowed her to make vis
its during lunch hours and right after
work, but she also came by on Satur
day's too. Mrs. Sawyer says she
could just go on and on about how
much being a Hospice volunteer has
meant to her however she will say
i =-=
that the "joy she has gotten from giv
ing has been a great revelation."
That is a wonderful description of
what a Hospice Volunteer's purpose
is: joyous giving.
Irene Belangia s background isin
caring as she is a retired registered
nurse from the health department.
Ms. Belangia is Co-Chairperson for
the Pasquotank County Hospice vol
unteer group and is also involved in
many other community activities.
She spent many dedicated hours vis
iting her patient during April and
also doing shopping for the patient.
Mrs. Belangia very beautifully states
"what being a Hospice volunteer
means to me: People need each
other; in every human sense we need
each other. "God says there are no
limits on love" so if my physical
strength, time and money runs out I
can stil give love."
The Spanish once believed bread on the window sill would avert a storm.
