A computer reading laboratory is available
in Rooms 110 and 111 of McCreless Hall.
The lab is open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Monday through Wednesday.
The reading lab has 60 IBM computers to
serve both classroom instruction labs.
The lab is used for classes and on a drop-in
basis when terminals are available.
The computers teach reading strategies,
visual perception, vocabulary development
and comprehension.
A student can choose or be assigned a story
to read, and then preview the story and
vocabulary.
The student can then set the speed for the
story to be shown.
"The set speed keeps them from regressing,
or going back over what they've read, and this
helps build confidence," said Professor Mary
Ann De Armond, reading and education
department chairman.
Students may pick up an application from
English Professor June McManus in Room 546
of Moody Learning Center.
Ham will be on the menu at the Christmas
party sponsored by the National Association of
Government Employees for members of the
Alamo Commmunity College District Local
from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Dec. 15 in Room
200 of Moody Learning Center.
Members are asked to call Dolores Ramirez
at 226-1214 to find out what food to bring.

"Season of Celebrations" will be shown at 5
p.m., 6:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sunday and Dec. 17
in the planetarium.
The program will include explanations of
the Christmas star, the origin of gift giving, the
lighting of Christmas trees, the Jewish holiday
Hanukkah and a variety of other holiday
traditions, Bryan A. Snow, planetarium
coordinator, said.
"People should come at least a half hour
prior to the show because the planetarium
begins to get filled faster when it gets close to
Christmas," he said.

The 10 new typewriters in Room 303 of
Moody Learning Center are still unavailable
for student use.
"Melissa Hdajek came to us about getting
new typewriters and we went to Dr. Wright to
ask what to do," Student Representative
Commissions President Denise Igleheart said.
The typewriters were ordered and proper
facilities were located, but currently the room
is unavailable.
"All the room needs is to have a door cut to
allow access by way of the tutoring room.
This is so the typewriters can be monitored by
the people who tutor," Igleheart said.
Robert Triana, maintenence supervisor, said
a work order simply needs to be filled out.
"We have given an estimate of $450 for a
brand new door, but we can't do anything
without the proper paperwork. Once we get a
work order, then we can finish the job," Triana
said.
Kathy Armstrong, director of student activi-
ties, said the work order had simply been
misplaced and the typing room should be
ready by the beginning of the spring semester.

Aguirre said.
"We're trying to just get people involved in
politics," Aguirre said.

of McCreless Hall. The tutoring lab is in Room
216A.
The tutoring lab is open from 8 a.m. to 3:30
p.m. daily except Tuesday and from 5 p.m. to 8 :
p.m. Tuesday.
The computer-video lab is open from 8:30
a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The hours on
Tuesday and Thursday are 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The new lab has five computer terminals
and 11 video terminals, which can accommo-
date four viewers each.
While the tutoring lab has helped more than
1,400 students since opening in mid-Septem-
ber, use of the video-computer lab has been
slow.
"Not very many people are aware we have it
yet, and it's late in the semester," said Dr.
Bennie Zinn, mathematics department chair-
man.
"But when word gets out next semester, this
will probably be overloaded," Zinn said of the
video-computer lab.
The video lab has two copies of 201 different
tapes for student viewing. Each tape contains a
lesson.
"Those who have used the tapes have been
very pleased," said Suzie Hessong, coordinator
of developmental math.
"We don't have much software yet, but
we're expanding as we go," she said, adding
the industry has a shortage of computer
mathamatics programs.
"We have real high hopes for it," Zinn said
of the video-computer lab.
