Registration is busy time for Business Office employees. Admissions Office reports early registration for freshmen proved to be highly successful. More students were admitted than in any other time in the college's history. Research Department says grants from the United States Office of Education will permit the college to establish The Southwest Staff Develop- ment Center. This Center will permit the college to train leadership personnel in early childhood and special education. It also provides a means to research education strategies which can stimulate students to enhance their learning skills. The Center will be assisted by organizations within and without the State of Arkansas. W. H.
