Texas A &Mstudents share skills, knowledge Math clinic helps local youth By JULIE HEDDERMAN Of The Battalion Staff Texas A&M students will share knowledge this summer with local el ementary and junior high students who need help with remedial math skills. A&M students will help local stu dents during an annual math clinic. Dr. Clarence Dockweiler of the Educational Curriculum and In struction Department said the clinic has two parts. The First part, individual diagnos tic testing, will determine a child’s skill level and areas of difficulty. Testing will be in three to four sessions from June 25 to July 3. The second part, which consists of individualized, intensive study in math areas in which the student needs help, will be July 11 to 31. Dockweiler said 10 to 12 students are expected to enroll for the clinic. The program, which began in 1980, is open to children from third to ninth grades. The clinic costs $100 per child. The diagnostic testing session costs “I It’s a very rewarding thing to be around.” —Clarence Dockweiler, professor -$25, and the remediation session costs $75. Scholarships are available when need is established. Registration is going on now until June 1. Daily sessions of the courses usually last from one to one-and-a- lialf hours. Dockweiler said the math clinic is designed to fill gaps in children’s math education and to help them understand math concepts. He said he believes the clinic is successful because it helps establish a positive attitude in children and im proves their outlook on math. “It’s a very rewarding thing to be around,” Dockweiler said. The clinic is conducted by grad uate students who have taken two el ementary school math education classes. These classes taught them di agnostic testing skills and remedial math teaching skills. Each child receives individualized help, which Dockweiler said helps relieve his or her anxiety and helps them relax. More information or a prelimi nary application may be obtained by calling Dockweiler at (409) 845- 8396.

Double Dave’s Pizza at 919 Harvey Rd. Score — 96. Follow-up inspection four days later. Points were deducted for too few toilet and handwashing facili ties. David Jefferson, a registered sanitarian at the de partment, said restaurants with scores of 95 or above generally have excellent operations and facilities. He said restaurants with scores in the 70s or low 80s usually have serious violations in the health report. Scores can be misleading, Jefferson said, because restaurants can get the same score by having several minor violations or a few major violations. He said the minor violations can be corrected during the in spection. Point deductions or violations in the report range from one point (minor violations) to five points (major violations). Jefferson said the department might close a res taurant if the score is below 60, the personnel have infectious diseases, the restaurant lacks adequate re frigeration, there is a sewage backup in the building or the restaurant has a complete lack of sanitization for the food equipment. The department inspects each restaurant every six months. Jefferson said a follow-up inspection is sometimes required if a restaurant has a four- or five-point violation that cannot be corrected during the inspection, or if there are numerous small viola tions. Inspectors at the department are registered sani tarians. State Bar nant former studem president-eleci By KATHERINE COFFEY Of The Battalion Staff - - utiyniiniw.
