Seniors
Continued from Page 1
Erin Mozola, a senior applied math ma
jor and member of the Academic Affairs
Committee of the Student Senate, advised
students to take action as soon as possible.
“The first step is to contact your profes
sor and explain that you are a graduating
senior,” Mozola said.
The next step, Mozola suggested, is the
department head. Students can also use
the drop-add procedure at the beginning of
the semester (or term) when a few seats
may become available.
“If you are a graduating senior,” Mozola
assured, “then this University will do
everything it can to get you into a class
and graduated.”

financial growth increases, they will in
stall security camera’s and security soft
ware will be implemented.”
Another area the Newsomes found
lacking is appropriate curriculum.
“The curriculum should be appropri
ate for the children’s developmental
stages,” Giancarlo said. “There will be a
resource center so the parents can be
informed. There will be quarterly par
enting seminars, daily reports and
monthly newsletters.”
Stark said teachers will be employed to
develop the proper curriculum.
“A child learns half the vocabulary he
or she will use for the rest of their lives by
the time they are three,” Stark said. “For
this reason, carefully selected degreed
teachers and students in the field of early
childhood development will be at the core
of the academic team.”
Teachers at the center will have the op
portunity to go through a scholarship pro
gram offered through Child Care Manage
ment Systems, an agency in the Depart
ment of Human Services.
Darla York, a day care worker at
Heaven Sent and a freshman early child
hood development major, said she is only
able to attend Blinn College because of
the program.
“The program pays for teachers to go to
Blinn College and get their Day Care
Worker’s Certificate,” York said. “There
will be more training for the workers at
Heaven Sent than a lot of other day care
centers. A lot of people, like college stu
dents, when hired don’t know what to ex
pect because they aren’t trained. The
workers here will be trained.
York started working in day care be
cause of her daughter. She said she will
trust her daughter being at Heaven Sent.
“I needed to find a job where I could
be with my daughter and work at the
same time,” York said. “Bright Begin
nings was perfect and Heaven Sent will
be too. I think it’s going to be wonderful
for her because they’re putting the chil
dren first. Being parents, the Newsomes
know what the children want and what
the children need.”
