SAGE aids transition for older student “The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be only the beginning ' says Doug Jones, a student at Southern. Changes in the economy, social ac¬ ceptance, physicial disabilities and accessibility to facilities have all played a part in the influx of older people into the academic communi¬ ty. Educational opportunity opens new doors of hope, knowledge and skill. It is indeed the beginning of a whole new world for returning students. Students Achieving Greater Education, otherwise known as SAGE, is Missouri Southern’s retur¬ ning student organization. SAGEs come in both sexes and inall colors, shapes and sizes. If the SAGE has a distingishing characteristic, it would be the appearance of maturi¬ ty, less favorably referred to as age. In the past the traditional students have come directly from high school into the college pro¬ gram. This trend is undergoing significant statisticial changes. No longer do traditional students far outnumber the nontraditional students. Here at Southern, the non¬ traditional students-ones 25 years of age and over-comprise over 50 per cent of the student body. Many nontraditional students returning to school experience stress such as coping with schedules, part- time or full-time jobs, child care dif¬ ficulties and financial crises. The nontraditional student can turn to SAGE for help in dealing with these stresses. SAGE President Jan Nichols says, “The SAGE is primarily a sup¬ port group. We represent a group with mutual needs and mutual causes. In the group we share friend¬ ship, helpful experiences and ser¬ vices to help ease the transition back into college life. We have created for ourselves a community of accep¬ tance. • - » » , . , , 4«ft c:ft l£v«4 | S Vt . it ffhu ir« ©• tugfe icfesoi fit 8 Sh % , Nrci k p 1 Vr fils : :• «!

Loren Olson Glen Wilson Terry James ifi Board of Regents: the questions remain the same The questions haven’t changed for the Board of Regents—to raise fees or not to raise fees, how to evaluate faculty, and where to cut the budget. After agonizing for several months over the fee question, the Regents voted to increase the cost to an instate full-time student to $350 per semester. A new appointee to the Board, Terry James, began his six-year term in November. James is a 1976 graduate of Missouri Southern, and is the first of the alumni Regents to have graduatefrom Southern rather than the former Joplin Junior College.
