Recognizing the nationwide call
for renewed emphasis on the teach-
ing of writing, Luzerne County Com-
munity College recently initiated a
new director of writing position
within the Humanities Department
at the college.
The Office of Continuing Educa-
tion at Luzerne County Community
College, in cooperation with Safety
Systems, Inc. of Jacksonville, Fla.,
will offer a seminar on ‘Hazardous
Materials - Leak, Spill and Fire
Control,” at the’ LCCC main campus
in Nanticoke.
The program, which will be held
on Monday, Oct. 10, from 8 a.m. to
4:30 p.m., will be divided into two
parts - an inside classroom study of
hazardous materials incident case
histories, and outside demonstra-

‘Qualified High School students
are offered a unique opportunity to
spend an academic year or six week
summer holiday in Sweden, Den-
mark, Norway, Finland, Germany
or Great Britain as part of the
American Scandinavian Student
Exchange (A.S.S.E.) program’’
announced Cynthia Wright, Eastern
Director of A.S.S.E.
“Until a few years ago, only a
fortunate few could afford to spend
a school year or summer in Scandi-
navia, Germany or Great Britain.
Now, A.S.S.E. has changed all
that,” continued Wright.
Students, 15 to 18 years old, are
selected on the basis of a good
academic record, excellent charac-
ter references, and a genuine desire
to experience life abroad with a
volunteer European Host Family.
“At least one member of the
carefully screened Ifost Family will

be fluent in English,” added Wright,
“so that communication will not be
a problem.” Year students are pro-
vided language-culture instruction
as part of the A.S.S.E. program.
The non-profit A.S.S.E. is affili-
ated with the Swedish and Finnish
Departments of Education and has
been officially designated by the
U.S. Information Agency as an
Exchange Visitor Program. The
A.S.S.E. Exchange Program ena-
bles qualified teenagers to live and
study in European countries in
order to learn from cultures other
than their own.

the cultural and educational advan-
tages of living in Scandinavia, Ger-
