Sept 1 is D-Day for fees Sept. 1, 1987- You have been dropped from your classes and bombarded with late fees. On top of that you have not been able to check out material in the library because you do not have your student I.D. card. Is there a way to straighten out your mounting academic woes? One way to avoid any confusion about fees, drop deadlines, and financial aid coverage is to check your student catalog for information regarding these subjects. A summary of the t information follows. Students may add or drop classes without penalty during the first five days of school. Students who drop courses after the fifth day of classes will be required to pay 50 percent of the fees for any dropped course. All fees are due between Aug. 25 and Aug. 31, 1987. Any student who has not paid their fees in full by Sept. 23, will automatically be dropped from classes. In order for a student to be reinstated to his her classes all outstanding fees must be paid and signatures from all instructors must be turned over to the Registrar ' s Office. Oustanding fees also acme a late charge of $10 beginning Sept. 1. An additional fee of $5 will be added to all late fees for each month thereafter until the amount has been paid. If you have a problem paying fees on or before the due date, you should speak to Joycelyn Goff in the Business Office. If you have any questions I ' ll be glad to listen and try to help the student out the best I can. said Goff, Above all, let us know if you have a problem. According to Goff, grants-in-aid can also cause confusion. Financial aid has also caused some confusion. said Goff Students on scholarship often forget that there is a $5 per credit hour fee that must be paid by the student. Once your fees have been paid in full, you will need to obtain an identification card. The identification card will allow ' you free admission to all home games, plays, and concerts •along with discounts at some of the local merchants. Your identification card will also allow you to check out materials at the Renn Memorial Library. by Julie Reed andDenise Woods INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW Q: Where is the the Student I.D.

MEDICAL TIPS Is there a doctor in the house? Students who are new to college life may find it hard to adjust. • This applies more to those living in the dormitories, and especially those from out of town, than to most other new students. Almost everyone who moves out of their home into an institutional environment such as that provided by a dormitory gets homesick. But what happens if an illness, more serious than homesickness, sets in? The common cold is easy enough to deal with. Time and patience will cure it. Flu? That ' s a little harder to handle. But the only thing you can do for it is take over-the-counter medications and relax. The 24-hour bug, the blahs, and other minor health glitches can be dealt with in a similar manner. But if you fall down the stairs and suddenly feel a sharp pain in your side, then what? I ' d be responsible to take them to the hospital, said Dennis Mclntire, supervisor of the new dormitory. But the pain of paying the emergency room bill could be greater than that of a cracked rib. It costs $67 just to see the emergency room doctor, and if treatment is necessary additional charges will be added to your bill. If it ' s not a bona fide emergency, visiting the Ark City Clinic on Radio Lane is probably a better solution. An office call there only runs about $25. If you have an appointment to see a doctor but can ' t find a way to get there, you have little to worry about. When someone has a doctor ' s appointment, we usually get them there, said Jackie Wilson, Nelson Dorm supervision According to Bob Juden, director of student life, In case of an accident, we do one of two things: find a ride or call an ambulance. If prescription drugs are needed there are several places in Ark City to get them. Within walking distance of the campus are three pharmacies, all located in the 200 South block of Summit Street: Petersen ' s Medicine Chest, Graves Self-Service Drug, and Taylor Drug. There are also pharmacies in Dillon ' s and Wal-Mart. If a visit to the doctor is in order, they are listed under Physicians and Surgeons in the Yellow Pages of the phone book. Ark City Memorial Hospital ' s emergency room phone number is 442-2500, and the number for the Ark City Clinic is 442-2100. And remember to dial 9 1 1 for serious accidents. by Michael Carmody 1 17 SOUTH SUMMIT STREET Arkansas City, Kansas 67005 (316)442-2410 Watch and CtocfCRepair Union State Bank Three convenient locations to serve you!!

GET CLUBBED Getting involoved is a part of the game at Cowley. For those whose athletic abilities fall on the short side, the clubs provide an opportunity to get more active in campus life.

Provided below is a listing and descriptions of the clubs so you may chose one to best suit your interest and or field. ADAAC The Alcohol and Drug Abuse Awareness Council (ADAAC) was designed to create an alternative way to have fun. Emphasis is placed on helping others who might abuse the use of drugs and or alcohol. The club has various speakers that support the club ' s purpose. Vocal Music Although the vocal music department boasts no clubs, there is still a group to get involved in. The CowleyCo Singers, comprised of 18-20 mixed voices, perform for various local organizations and clubs. Also in the vocal department is the College Choir that, along with the CowleyCo Singers, produce concerts during the year and in the spring begin their annual tour. The tour takes the students to surrounding schools and is used as a recruiting tool for the College. Instrumental Music Not to be left out of the listing of the College ' s music program is the instrumental department. The concert and jazz bands practice daily and perform concerts throughout the semester. Like the vocal music department, the bands travel on tour each spring to area schools.
