Hard Times: Winter Quarter Magazine Vol. 1 No. 2, 1972
No full textHard Times Magazine 1972, Winter QuarterIt is our hope that this
magazine, the 2nd in a series
of 4, is as well received as
was the first, COMMUNICATIONS.
It is said you learn
from your mistakes. So, it
would seem the more mistakes
you make, the more
knowledge you store. If this is
the case, we learned a lot
from our first quarterly magazine.
Whether we improved is
up to you to judge. But, we did
try, despite the Hard Times of
winter quarter.

Although the faculty spent a good bit of time in the early part of
the year preparing for the visit from the Southern Association's
Visiting Committee, the year has been unusually productive of
curricular planning that would seem to make the curriculum more
effective for a junior college, with its diverse student population
and its task of providing meaningful general education....
Other changes in the instructional program tend to be more in the
area of attitude and philosophy than in the area of formal modifications.
In general, the change has been in the direction of a
greater emphasis on helping students learn and be successful in
college, rather than on screening out the unworthy....

TWO efforts were made during the year to increase the professional
awareness of the faculty and to keep them better
informed about what is happening in higher education....
The nursing program continued to grow and to develop in
both student enrollment and quality instruction....
The main academic difficulties have to do with problems
involved in implementing new and non-traditional teaching
methods. During the past year a number of faculty members
have become very much interested in some of the newer
approaches to teaching that have been found to be successful,
or at least promising, in junior colleges throughout
the country

Through a terminal (I.B.M. 1050) our faculty and students
will have access to the computer capacity of the University
System including the computing centers at the three major
institutions within the System. This local terminal will
be used exclusively for instruction and research.
The institution does not, however, have any electronic
data processing equipment for use in unit records. This
means that all student records (applications, registrations,
transcripts, etc.) are processed manually

As a community college, Brunswick Junior College provides
several terminal programs for students who desire to complete
one or two years of college and to seek immediate employment.
Terminal programs include nursing, secretarial and clerical
science, and chemical technology....During the 1968-69 academic year, the faculty
added to the curriculum developmental courses in history and
science and continued to offer developmental courses in
reading, English, and mathematics....From the standpoint of student involvement, planning, and
participation, a highlight of the student activities for the
year was the Religion-In-Life Week sponsored by the religious
clubs and planned by the Student Religion-In-Life Week Committee....
Although the faculty is extremely conscious of the
need for a highly effective program in developmental studies
as a basis for helping marginal students become successful,
functioning, college level students, they do not seem to
have a great deal of confidence in the present developmental
program....
The
difficulty... of maintaining a balanced faculty when
the student body is small is one of the more serious difficulties
we face...
We have also some need for instruction in data processing
and the use of computers in the business education department
