Neumaier would accept a pos ition as Pres i­ dent of the State Uni versity College, New Paltz, New York. As of September 1, 1968 Moorhead State Coll ege would, hopefull y, have a new pres id ent . It was the hope of all concerned, student and faculty alike, that the Minnes ota State Coll ege Board would be abl e to find a successor for Dr. Neum aier.

This tour showed me small lab and storage space. needed, arid that having this would save much an immaculate health service, which surely could This year the personnel at the health service has grown because of increased needs for a larger staff. A doctor is at the service most of the time and is considered a member of the college facul­ ty. Still more doctor hours are needed and she is working on the possibility, because, " the present hours aren't quite reaching around." There is one full-time nurse, plus two nurses who work ap­ proximately three-fourths of the time. Three stu­ dent he! pers are also on the staff. " What has been the biggest increase in disease?", was asked out of my own curiousity. Her reply was that the center has many sore throat cases but the flu hasn't become serious yet. "We have quite a variety of cases." Miss Lindqu­ ist remarked, " so it 's hard to say. " She noted that around mid-terms and fin als infectious mononu­ cleosis is frequent. Since she has served many MSC students, I wondered if she or any of the personnel has ever contracted a student's disease, such as measles. " No," was the reply, and it was explained that doctors and nurses take the proper precautions when handling such cases and that the student help isn't allowed to come into close contact with the cases.

New life has been breathed into the Moorhead State College Departme nt of Mass Communica­ tions - or Journalism, if you will - during the past year, with particularly strong emphasis on preparing students for editori al a nd advertising positions in mass media or in industry. Under leadership of Roger Hamilton, Public Relations Director and acting MC chairman, fac­ ulty members have been recruited from the me­ dia itself and the word "practical" has been effec­ tively applied to new course offerings. During the 1968 political campaign, junior journalists in advanced re porting and editing courses actually "covered" several events, culmi­ nating their efforts with publication of two spe­ Undecided? cial tabloid sections of the Moorhead Valley Times. ported the former Alabama governor's talk, Working under supe rvision of Howard Bin­ complete with a dozen " sidebar" human interest ford , former Times editor but now a fulltime stories such as inte rvie ws with Wallace Girls, Election watchers?

While emphas izing several strong " technique" courses - to teach the " how-to-do-its" of mod­ ern journalism - the de partment has been ca re­ ful to include strong theory and survey courses in its program so that graduates will leave the col­ lege with a broad knowledge of responsibilities of the ir profess ion .
