News From The Library
This program will reach all
students yet to take English 102,
since it is a part of the course.
It is a joint effort of the
library staff and the English
department. Library staff
members have already noticed
an increased use of reference
materials by students who use
the tour guide in last year’s 102
classes.
After they have completed the
tour and the worksheets,
students take a quiz on library
usage. The median score so far
is about 90.
The tour is an outgrowth of a
program of bibliographic in
struction, developed by Ms. Jan
Ruskell of the reference
department while working on a
grant from the council of
library resources.

Gov's Intern
Deadline Near
Deadline for applications for
the Governor’s Intern Program
during the winter quarter have
until Oct. 10 to apply through
the public services office in
Adamson Hall.
During the past year more
than 600 Georgia students
earned money and college
credit under the Governor’s
program. Interns worked in
service-learning projects
designed and supervised by
more than 70 public agencies
across the state.
Currently six West Georgia
students are participating in the
program and according to Dr.
Richard Folk of the public
services office, "We anticipate
placing 10 to 15 students during
the Winter Quarter.”
"More than 12 per cent of all
interns over the past five years
were employed by the agencies
upon their graduation. Other
students found that the intern
experience gained helped them
find employment in another
agency or in the private sec
tor,” according to Folk.
For more information or
assistance, students should
contact Folk or Mrs. Jan Trinks
in Adamson Hall, or call them
at 834-1237.
