Photo by Duane Hiersche IL— Now that he is employed at the College, Engstrom said his new job will be a “flip-flop” from the activities of his earlier job. “Carrying out the priorities of the College,” and “seeing if we (development center) can’t find other ways to support activities the College thinks are important,” are Engstrom’s goals for his new job. He also describes himself as having an ongoing commitment to higher education. “I need to find out where I should be spen ding my time,” Engstrom said, as he has only been employed for just over a week. Error found in article In last week’s issue of The Print, a. front page story ran on summer financial aid availabili ty for veterans.~ Scott Fischer, financial aid officer, pointed out ah error in the headline. The story dealt with veterans’ benefits that go toward summfer tuition. That, however, is not actually finan- ‘dal aid,, but an entitlement, Fischer said. After the story ran, the Financial Aid office received calls from non-veterans, wondering why they were turn ed down for aid and the vets are not. The Print regrets any misunderstanding, stemming from the article and the headline. For further informa tion on summer school and financial aid for fall term, con tact the aid department, ext. 422.
