Certificate Program for Child Care GENERAL NEWS college was the class size," Imadojemu said, "at a campus like this you can enjoy your teaching because of personal contact." "I like the balance here between teaching and research," he said. Imadojemu said that the emphasis at Capital is more on teaching. That emphasis on teaching seems to be a positive influence on the students at Capital who, he said show a great deal of determination. "That is one thing a student really needs, that determination, that willingness to try," said Imadojemu. He is thus far satisfied with his choice of Penn State Harrisburg. He said the Engineering Dept. has made him feel like family. "Dr. Welsh has been very helpful," Imadojemu said, "and Professor Aungst has gone out of his way several times to give me some personal assistance." Outside the classroom, Imadojemu is hoping to get to know the students through ASME, in which he plans to be active. He would also like to see a Full Gospel Fellowship initiated on the campus. "I want to get involved with these things because I want to interact individually with the students," Imadojemu said.
