Students receive care
at LU Health Center
By LARRY BONIN
of the U.P. staff
Some students may not know that
many services are available to them
through the university Health Center.
In most cases, these services are free to
students with a valid identification
card.
All students pay a Health Service Fee
of $1 per semester hour with a
maximum of $10 per semester. Two
main types of services are available
from the Health Center.
There are out-patient services for the
student who has minor ailments not
requiring constant supervision, and an
infirmary service including twenty-
four beds for those in need of the con-
tinued attention of the university
physician or nursing care.
The university physician is Dr.
Classes listed
for Liberty
As an extension of its off-campus
program, the education department is
offering several classes in Liberty this
Fall.
Education 5363 was taught there
during the Spring semester at Liberty
High School. But the program has been
moved from the high school to the new
Sam Houston Library.
Courses available for the Fall
semester include Education 5319, and
Special Education 4301, 4301G, 4309,
4309G and 5361.
For further information, contact Dr.
Monty Sontag in the education depart-
ment or call 838-7322.
Lamar Bevil. His office hours at the
center are from 8 a.m. to noon, Monday
thru Friday. Nurses staff the center un-
til 9 p.m. They are also on call at the
center for emergencies twenty-four
hours a day.
“Quite a few students make use of the
health center,” says Helen Crawford, a
registered nurse and assistant to the
director of the center, Mable Lomonte.
“But some say that they’ve been
going to school here for two years and
don’t even know where the center is,”
added Crawford. The center is located
on East Virginia St. near Combs Hall,
and directly adjacent to the tennis cour-
ts.
Any medication that the Health Cen-
ter has in stock will be given free to
students. The center will also pay up to
$100 of the medical costs of any ac-
cident that occurs on campus. Other
benefits are vaccines, serums and gam-
ma globulin; tuberculosis test, pap
smears and free birth control pills.
The center does not provide care for
students requiring surgery or the ser-
vices of specialists. The university also
assumes no responsibility for students
having chronic diseases.
There are no appointments at the
health center. Students are taken on a
first-come, first-serve basis. Crawford
said that students do complain
sometimes about the time involved in
waiting, but she feels that the center is
staffed well enough to take care of
them.
“Considering the cost of a visit to a
private physician theses days, most of
the students seem to think they’re get-
ting a pretty good deal,” concluded
Crawford.
A.A.S. Child Care degree
offered by Technical Arts
The adult training department in the
College of Technical Arts is now of-
fering a two year associate of applied
science degree in child care.
Night classes on all three Lamar
campuses are being offered during the
fall and spring semesters and will
satisfy the two year degree
requirements as well as the Child
Development Associate (CDA) Cer-
tificate.
The CDA Certificate is a professional
credential, awarded to persons working
in government-funded centers. Ac-

cording to Dianne Burney, early
childhood development program coor-
dinator at Lamar, one out of every four
workers in Head Start programs must
be certified by 1980.
She said that Lamar’s child care
courses were originally geared toward
training of in-service day care workers.
“But with the growing interest of high
school graduates, and the 1980 CDA
requirements, we now offer the two
year degree,” said Burney.
And according to Norman Lowrey,
Lamar’s adult training supervisor, the
growth in the number of working paren-
ts has created a large demand for
qualified child care worxers.
He said that there are 540 day care
workers employed in 110 facilities in the
three county Golden Triangle area.
“These people care for 29,000
children under five years of age,”
lowery said. “And 60 percent of the
mothers of these children are
working.”
The Lamar program will satisfy the
requirements for both the associate
degree and the CDA certification.

ne Burney at 838-8861.
