Poet visits college
■

I Students on the workstudy
program this year will experience
a few changes from last year’s
logram.
I Clackamas receives a certain
amount of money for financial
ad each year from the Federal
department of Education. This
Honey is also used for Sup­
lemental Grants and National
Direct Loans as well as for the
work-study program. The work-
study program over-awards the
■nds because some students who
receive them do not enroll, and
others leave before the end of the
school year.
■Usually the financial aid office
does an excellent job of predic-
ting the amount of awards
necessary to use all the money.
But workstudy is even harder to
■edict than the other programs
in financial aid because in
workstudy some of the students
prefer to work off campus or are
not able to work. This year the
people in charge of financial aid
didn’t predict the right amount of
students who would be using the
work-study program.
■During fall term last year 145
students used the workstudy pro­
mm; this year 245 students are
using it. This means that
■nething had to be done so that
all the students on the program
could continue to stay on it.
What the financial department
Aided to do was to have
■dents on workstudy stop
working during the holidays, like
■ristmas and also during Spring
break. Students will not be work-
ing after June 10 either. This may
make it hard for some students
but this was the only fair thing to
do.
Since it would be hard for
some of the students during this
time, a meeting was held to
answer questions and give infor­
mation on part-time jobs and
other resources available over the
holidays. The meeting was held
December 16. Kathy Scheer,
Financial Aid Coordinator, Paul
Kyllo, Student Activities
Specialist, and Kate Adams,
Placement Specialist from the
Career and Job Development
Center were there. They
answered all the questions
students had and even gave
energy assistance information.
They were willing to help in any
way they could.
If students need financial aid,
there are still funds available for
the Pell Grant and Guaranteed
Student Loans. Applications can
be picked up in the Financial Aid
office.
There are also some NEW
scholarships
available:

Scheer will be happy to answer
questions.
