Hon with Computing/Commu¬
nication/Media Services
(CCMS), students take on the roll
of producer/ director creating
state-of-the art instructional vid¬
eos.
They are involved in all angles
of production from choosing re¬
sources to planning and video
production. Aside from aiming
the new production technology
towards students, it will be
shared with several other similar
sites in the region through tele¬
conferencing.
Associate Dean Monke says
that the education program
works in cooperation with sev¬
eral software companies.
While the school tests the lat¬
est efforts in computer software
on students and children alike,
the software companies get feed-
trade cm the pros and ccns of their
latest work Monke notes Apple
Computers involvement saying
they have been helpful in the
new facility.
The education building'schild
care facilities are geared toward
majors in the school of education
and human development
Early Childhood Education
director Shareen Abramson says
that the new site will soon be
opened toall majors with require¬
ments in childhood development
Student observation heavily
depends on parents enrolling
their children in the center for
day care. Abramson says that
there are still several spots open
for toddlers and young children.
The education building
amounts to seemingly unlimited
benefits forstudents, parents, and
children.
Monke said that after com¬
pleting the program, teachers
"will got into their roles well pre¬
pared."
The endless enthusiasm and
dedication of Associate Dean
Monke and the school of educa¬
tion and human development
proves that the program will en¬
sure a top-rate education for fu¬
ture teachers and children alike.

senate will havejo clean up last
year's mess," she said.
Members of various clubs on
campus that receive ASI funds
feel that politics has played too
large a role in the ASI, and that
the current situation is adding
fuel to the fire.
"Ifs absolutely ridiculous,"
said Curtis Mannah, a senior
music ai^jor who was last year's
president of the CSUF chapter of
the American Choral Directors
Association.
.'Trom what I've seen, they've
been more apt to argue than to
get things done. I saw too many
problems with the president and
the senate getting angry at each
other."
• The ACDA chapter received
$440 from the ASI last year.
Thim Bounnhong, last year's
presiden t of the Lao Student As¬
sociation, had a different view of
the ASl's procedures.
"Most of the time, ifs been
pretty smooth - we haven't had
many problems in the past"
— She said that the ASl's $970
allocation helped them put on
Southeast Asian Night and vari¬
ous cultural shows.
"We have a lot of turnout for
our shows. However, if we don't
get our allotment and no other
club pitches in, we won't be able
to do them."
She said the group must pay
for costumes and technicians for
their events.
"What I see is a general com¬
munication gap. If things don't
work, they should insert a me¬
diator. I think the students need
some experience from the ad¬
ministration. Because of their
experience, they could help the
situation," DeborahDelaney said.
Corcoran's wish, despite all
the recent roadblocks, is that the ,
ASI nourishes.
TArish the ASI greater au-
- tonomy and the the ability to
govern the way it sees^t,"
Corcoran said.
"AH I ask is that the ASI be'
legitimate."
