Rasa iY! ” NE MICHAEL FARRIS THE FIRST GRADERS are beginning numerous projects for the fall season. They are ‘‘pressing leaves” for window display and preparing to work on “Patty and Peter Pumpkin’” and ‘‘Marvin Monster”. They have already com- pleted several science projects and are progressing well in their studies. THE SIXTH AND SEVENTH King’s gets grant King’s College has been awarded $326,932 to conduct the final year of a four-year federally aided institu- tional strengthening program. The funds, granted through the U.S. Department of Education’s Title III Institutional Aid Program, will be used by the college this year to continue or to implement pro- grams begun in the first three years of the project. Allocated monies are intended to supplement institutional expenditures and to assist the col- lege in making improvements which would be much more difficult with- out federal financial help. This year’s grant brings to nearly $1.5 million the total federal support to the college through Title III funds, including a $200,000 pilot grant prior to the beginning of the four-year project in 1982. Grant awards in the past three years under the program have been for $247,000 in 1982-83, for $351,000 in 1983-84 and for $370,000 in 1984-85. This year’s activities at King’s will include expanding the campus computerized Administrative Infor- mation System continuing the devel- opment of King’s Competency Based Liberal Learning program, continuing the development of new degree programs in computer sci- ence, international business and human resources management, and mental learning programs through King’s Learning Skills Center. Based on its successes in the first three years of the Title III Pro- gram, King’s has been selected as a model for other colleges across the country to follow in the development of their institutional strengthening programs. The administrator of the King’s grant for the previous three years, Academic Dean Dr. Donald W. Farmer, has been invited to deliver the keynote address at the national Title III Conference to be held October 16 in Atlanta. This is Have a news tip?
