The lab. initiated in 1983. is operated by the Qdlege of Hu man Development and Perfor mance's physical education and human movement studies department, where it receives much of its funding In addition, the lab receives generous contributions, one in thi* form of an equipment loan from the Hovverman Founda tion. One of the community ser vice programs offered by the lab is the Community Health Improvement Program (CHIP), which functions in cooperation with Sacred Heart Hospital and serves a number of faculty and community members. The program's primary goal is to increase participant's awareness and knowledge of health and fitness by adminis tering initial fitness evaluation, individual consultations, bi weekly supervised exercise pe riods. blood pressure monitor ing and health education class es. "CHIP has given me the op portunity to involve myself in some physical activity on cam pus." said Margo Ramsing, in ternational services foreign stu dent adviser who is an active participant in the program "The program is excellent, and the instructors are aware of working with people between the ages of 40-70. "The sessions have a lot of variety in terms of ways to keep fit. such as aerobic sessions, stretching, jogging or walks and a 15 minute seminar every week on nutrition, or anything related to health care is also of fered." Ramsing said Additional services provided by the lab are hydrostatic weighing, underwater weigh ing to determine one's percent age body fat. graded exercise, only offered to clinical clients and participants of <’IIIP. and a collaborative study with the Or egon Research Institute looking at self-care in Type II Diabetes. "Our future goal is to pro vide services to the community and the catnpus population in line w-ith the three fold mis sion." said )anice Lettunich, director of the Slocum sports medicine lab. At present, the lab is in volved in a project for metabol ic study with McKenzie Wil lamette Hospital. The study is designed to de termine the resting metabolic rate of clients involved in weight control programs for about a year. Other projects include the New Weigh Plan, which is an exercise component for the weight control programs with the Eugene Clinic and the Adult Exercise Program, a re search project funded by the National institute of Aging di r»K;ted by Dr. Edward McAuley. physical education and human movement studies department assistant professor. McAuley's program illus trates how the lab can fulfill the three fold mission. "The project itself provides research opportunity for both faculty and graduate students and serves a dual purpose." Lettunich said. " For not only does the project provide a much needed community ser vice, potentially enhancing the health of about a hundred com munity members, it has also provided student education for the fifteen students who have assisted in the project.” Lettunich. assisted by Kathy Ober. CHIP assistant director, is a certified preven tive/rehabilitation exercise spe cialist certified by the Ameri can College of Sports Medicine. In addition, she was a former technician at the Oregon Heart Center at Sacred Heart, and as an intern she worked at the car We ship your stuff home! S' 1 to 1000 pounds, computers, stereos.
