Cheap offers alternatives by Sandra Kimmons Every Tuesday night he wore goggles and a tank. He is Steve Henderson and he was enrolled in a scuba class offered by Cheap University. Cheap University is a series of non-credit programs and classes sponsored by the Campus Union Board that are not available through the regular University program. Many of these classes, students couldn't take during their regular semester. They'd have too many credits, Nancy Keck, CUB Cheap University chairman, said. Cheap U, now in its third year, was an outgrowth of arts and crafts classes the CUB sponsored in previous years. We pulled together various workshops and seminars. We talked to various other schools to see how similar programs worked, Lou Dugan, assistant director of the Campus Union, said. The first year's attendance was bad, real bad. This year's enrollment was about 400. That's about a 450 percent increase from the first year's. Students, faculty, staff and their families were eligible to register for the classes. The selection of 15 classes included cake design! decorating, basic flower arranging, macrame, apartment gardening, dress- ing for success and frisbee. The most popular classes were cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and aerobic dancing, Keck said. Many of the classes were suggested by students. Frisbee was suggested as a class in an attempt to get frisbee back to the University, she said. For the clogging dance class, the teacher approached us. There were few limitations on the classes offered. We avoided offering classes that were available throughout the regular University program, or offered by the continuing education office, and we avoided sensational classes like belly dancing, wine tasting and basketweavingf' Dugan said. According to Dugan, students took Cheap University classes for several reasons. Many classes similar to Cheap U were off-campus, more expensive and more time-consuming. Students got ideas from the QCheap UD courses and after they got into it, they could really invest money and time later, Dugan said. Henderson took scuba diving because my brother had tanks and I bought one from him, but it was too hard to get my tank filled without a license. The class was cheaper than any area classes. They furnished a tank, suit, mask, buoyancy control devices, air gauges, etc, he said. It's more than a hobby, Henderson said. I can earn money down at Lake of the Ozarks. People drop S90-100 prescription glasses off the dock and they'd rather pay me S20 to dive down, rather than go to the doctor to get another pair of glasses. I can earn the price of the class in no time at all, he 1 said. The Campus Union Board Cheap University committee decided upon the classes offered, acquired teachers, reserved rooms, obtained supplies, promoted the classes and handled registration. Any fee charged to participants was to cover supplies or the instructors' salaries. YOU DON'T BRING ME FLOWERS ANYMORE is the song being hand- signed by Harrison Axum, Melceenia Wells and Ellen Kimmel in Cheap U19 sign language class.
