Development of the “other educa
tion,” that of social and extracurricu
lar involvement, may come easy for
most students, but the road to aca
demic success usually is not so
smooth.
Through various academic and
career programs, the Student Coun
seling Services offers students the
opportunity to sharpen study skills
and explore career interests.
Workshops offered throughout
the semester include topics on test
anxiety, conquering finals, power
learning techniques, and a career in
terest clinic.
“Our goal is to help students suc
ceed,” Mary Olona, SCS counseling
psychologist, said.
Olona said failing to meet aca
demic performance expections can
damage the self esteem of many stu
dents.
“A lot of students think they are
what they get, but that’s not true,”
she said. “A grade of ‘C’ does not
mean you’re an average person, or
an ‘F’ that you’ve failed life.”
One of the SCS’s most popular
workshops, she said, is the test-anxi
ety workshop.
Offered twice a semestef, the
three-week workshop gives test tak
ing strategies and relaxation tech
niques to help students manage their
anxiety before, during, and after
tests.
Although too much stress often
causes one to freeze up, a certain
amount helps one to perform, she
said.
Workshops try to help students
develop the stress level needed to
achieve optimum performance.
Other workshops offered include
a “Conquering Finals” workshop,

REPORTER
The Student Counseling Service is putting together a
program to help students deal with the pain and reject
ion caused by broken relationships.
The title of the program is “Relationship Issues,” but
the primary focus will be on overcoming rejection in ro
mantic relationships.
“Rejection is an inevitable part of life, especially for
students who in college are experiencing their first
powerful relationship,” said Dr. Ted Stachowiak, a
counseling psychologist at SCS. “They are exploring
relationships for the first time and breaking up can
cause an intense sense of loss.”
Stachowiak and Bea Garrett, a doctoral psychology
intern at the counseling service, will be leading the
small support group.
“The actual rejection experience may cause people to
feel like a failure or unlovable and may begin to affect
all parts of their lives,” Stachowiak said. “We will help
them through a five-stage recovery process that in
volves members so they can get in touch with their emo
tions and gain support from others.”
The five stages most people go through while recoil
ering from a breakup include: L
• Manuevering — trying to figure out how to handlj MIAa
it by blaming others. Hhose .
• Concluding — forming beliefs about the situation tprcychst
for example, the opposite sex isn’t trustworthy. ||olence
• Letting go — taking a close look at how then; ch ar £ e(
clinging and finally letting go. Bours atti
• Objectifying — looking at the relationship objecti j Mean"
vely and trying to understand how and why it han® ent ? C1
pened. Ivesttgai
• Re-emergence — getting on with their lives anil [ty P ane
trying new relationships. | ent com
“We want them to recognize what stage they’re in» l cie ^.P°

The support group will be no larger than 10 mem | ountso

“Individuals who have never had group counseling Loza in

Abstinence education bill draws support
stitutiona
Hikes in
tty builc
east 30 t
AUSTIN (AP) — A bill that would
require school districts that teach sex
education to include information on
abstinence as the only 100 percent
effective method of preventing sex
ually transmitted diseases and un
wanted pregnancies drew support
from several groups Monday.
Sen. Kenneth Armbrister, the fa
ther of two teen-agers, said studies
indicate sex education courses that
teach various forms of birth control
— but do not make abstinence the
goal — “may actually be a factor in
increasing sexual activity ol teen-ag
ers.”
Armbrister, D-Victoria, said cur
rent sex education courses reflect
the attitude of‘“Well, you know how
it was when you were that age,’ or,
‘Kids are going to do it anyway.”’
“We’re here to tell you that Texas
youngsters don’t always feel that
that’s true, that not all kids are en
gaged in premarital sex, not all
youngsters think that it’s the right
thing to do to be engaged in that —
that it’s not a shield that they can
hang up as an award,” Armbrister
told a news conference. “It should be
the other way.”
He said he had been asked if the
bill was an attempt to impose morals
on young people, and he said his an
swer was, “Probably absolutely, yeah,
we are. We think it’s important that
this be taught.”
Armbrister said sex education
courses including abstinence already
are in place in $even school districts.
