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
