A Tribute to the Parents

This was read to the parents by Marnie Jo Matthews of , during the con- secration service for nursing students at Southwestern Adventist College January 26. Her classmate, Holly Lane of Gentry, Arkansas, wrote it.)

It doesn't seem so long ago I was small and dependent, looking to you to fill my needs. You did.

As I grew, I needed independence. I tried my wings and came falling to the ground. You picked me up and encouraged me to try again. I did.

Then came the time for me, with fear in my heart, And you, with tears in your eyes, To take on new responsibilities. We did.

Still to come are sad times and discouragement. But from you I have learned of such things as faith and courage, And I will succeed because of what You did. Holly Lane, Freshman Nursing Student

In an interview to be published in the March 1985 issue of Listen magazine, he discusses some of these methods. In one type of program, called "cross-age tutoring", student volunteers go into elementary schools to tutor younger child- ren. Another method involves training teenagers to listen to each other, much as school guidance counselors do. "It's kid helping kid, and it seems to be very, very effective," observes Cohen. "Ironically, it's at least as effective for the counselors as it is for the counselees." Dan Matthews (left) and Leo Van Dodson.
