Rules on providing consumer infor-
mation on financial aid established by
Health, Education and Welfare will have
little or no effect on NT students,
Melvin Gouge, director of financial aid,
said Tuesday.
The Financial Aid Office provides all
of the informational services required by
HEW, including information on atten-
dance cost, refund policies, student
eligibility and the criteria used by NT to
select financial aid recipients and deter-
mine award amounts.
MOST STATE supported schools
already comply with the HEW require-
ments, Gouge said, and the HEW ruling
was aimed at private institutions whose
financial aid offices aren’t as extensive as
NT’s.
Commenting on the procedures and
criteria used, Gouge said after a student
applies he submits a form to the College
Scholarship Service, which calculates the
student's need. This information is sent
back to the Financial Aid Office where
the student’s need is checked for
eligibility and to see if there are enough
funds appropriated in that particular
program. If not, an alternative is of-
fered.
“FINANCIAL AID programs are
designed on a first-come, first-served
Courses, Interviews
Department Offers Experiments
The sociology and anthropology
departmen' will offer six experimental
courses in .ne spring.
The courses in sociology are
Sociology 531, “Seminar in Professions
and Occupations;" Sociology 498, “The
Family in Later Life;” and Sociology
426, “Sociology of Food."
The seminar in professions and oc-
cupations will stress the sociological
aspects of work and occupations.
The course will be taught by Dr.
David Maione.
“The Family in Later Life,” will be
taught by Dr. Rudy Ray Seward.
The course will survey the later stages
of the family life cycle with emphasis on
the role of transitions, becoming a
grandparent and retirement; changing
composition; children leaving home and
death of spouse; and support systems,
societal attitudes and governmental
policy.
"Sociology of Food” will examine the
social and cultural aspects of food in the
world today.
Dr. James Kitchens will teach the
course.
The anthropology courses to be of-
fered include two new courses,
Anthropology 298, “Introduction to
Physical Anthropology;” Anthropology
461, "Introduction to Psychological
Anthropology-Topics in Cultural
Anthropology;" and an existing course,
Anthropology 301, “Social
Organization.”
The introduction to physical
anthropology will survey the main topics
studied by physical anthropologists—
human biology and evolution, the
biological and social nature of primates,
race and human growth. Interested stu-
dents may contact Dr. Barbara Butler,
who will teach the course.
Dr. Patrick Gray will teach the in-
troduction to psychological
anthropology.
The main focus of this course will be
the question of how mental illness and
abnormality are culturally defined in
various groups. The final section of the
course will deal with altered states of
consciousness and how different cultures
use them in a creative manner.
"Social Organization” is the study of
the variety of different cultures in the
world.
SCHOOL INTERVIEWS
Two representatives from Dallas,
Richard McCook, administrative
assistant-personnel, and Dr. Manuela
Pedraza, coordinator-personnel, will
conduct interviews at NT Dec. 8.
A student who wishes to be inter-
viewed must complete an interview card
and an application, secure a letter of in-
tent from the College of Education and
take a one-hour test before the inter-
view.
The test will be offered on Dec. 8 at 8
a.m., 10 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. No ap-
plicant will be eligible for an interview
without having completed the test, the
Dallas school district office said.
RUSSIAN COURSE
“Oh boy, Tolstoy!" was the reaction
of one student eager to participate in an
experimental Russian course to be of-
fered in the spring, according to Dr.
Marianna Oonk of the Russian faculty.
Russian 398 will introduce students to
the culture, art, history, architecture and
literature of the USSR and it will help
fill the B.A. core curriculum require-
ment, Dr. Oonk said. The course will be
taught in English.
More information can be obtained
from the foreign language department at
788-2542.

With 20 percent of all NT students
receiving some type of financial aid, the
Financial Aid Office plans to expand its

Provisions
To Increase
Gl Benefits
Provisions to the GI Bill, signed by
President Jimmy Carter Nov. 23, include
a possible two-year extension of benefits
for veterans who have not used aii
available benefits but are nearing the 10-
year cut off date and a 6.6 percent
monthly pay increase.
Bill Turner of the NT Veterans Office
said his office has received many calls
about the extension provision, but he
will not be able to give definite answers
to inquiries until he receives guidelines
from his regional office in Waco. This
should take about two weeks, he said.
Students on the GI Bill will receive the
pay increase in their December checks.
The raise will be retroactive Oct. 1.
Besides the increase, the ceiling on
Veterans Administration education
loans has been raised from SI,500 to
$2,500 per year. The Women Air Force
Service Pilots, who flew military planes
in World War II, will be eligible for
benefits.
Veterans will receive the pay increase
in their December allotment, but they
should call the VA office to verify the
amount and to report any change of ad-
dress, Turner said. The VA phone
number is 788-2366.
About 1,360 veterans are attending
NT.
Turner said he does not have definite
guidelines on the two-year extension of
benefits, but veterans who are interested
will probably have to apply.
This extension will not be automatic,
as the 1974 extension was, he said.
become familiar with each student’s per-
sonal situation.
Beginning with some changes in the
financial aid brochure available to stu-
dents in the spring, the changes will be
completed in a two- to three-year
process.
Some of the HEW regulations
elude;
Institutions preparing a statement ot
the rights and responsibilities of students
receiving Title IV grants and loans,
descriptions of academic programs, and
figures showing the percent of students
having completed a particular course of
study, if such figures are available.
Institutions providing information
about available financial assistance, in-
cluding all Title IV programs as well as
their own and state programs, to
prospective and enrolled students upon
request. Application forms and instruc-
tions for filling them out will be a part of
the service.
THE REGULATIONS include each
institution having an employee or a
group of employees available on a full-
time basis to assist all students in obtain-
ing information. This requirement may
be waived for an institution too small to
need such a full-time employee.
Institutional records of Federal funds
received and spent will be kept for five
years. Records involved in a claim or
questioned by an audit will be further
retained.
Administrative allowances will be
subject to audit. These allowances in-
volve a 4 percent appropriation from the
government to be used for administering
the financial aid programs.
These regulations will go into effect 45
days from Dec. 1,
