Dear Dr. Nardone:

President Coleman has asked me to respond to your proposal to establish acollaborative post-high school program on the campus of Saint JosephCollege. I am pleased to report that all interested parties at the Collegesupport the proposal and look forward to another opportunity of working withthe West Hartford Public Schools. We have, I believe, identified asuitable, fully accessible room for your use. Since it is a room that weordinarily reserve for rental purposes, we will need to charge a modest feeto cover utilities and lost income. Financial arrangements for the Collegewill be handled by Daniel Overstreet, Vice President for Finance andAdministration. I will have Mr. Overstreet contact you on specificdetails.

All of us at Saint Joseph College look forward to working with you in thisexciting project.

Sincerely,

Martin D. Snyder,Provost

A New SpecialEducationProgram

The West Hartford Public Schools, incollaboration with St. Joseph College, hasestablished a post high school programon the college campus. This programnrovides educational opportunities in the

eas of Vocational Training, Life Skillsand Academics for special needs stu-dents, which will prepare them for a suc-cessful transition to meaningful employ-ment and community living.

Our rationale for this program is aninclusive model of education for studentswith special needs, which provides age-appropriate placement of students in typi-cal academic and social activities. Par-ticipation in all mainstream experiences,in collaboration with special educationsupport services, facilitates the develop-ment of personal, social and vocationalindependence.

What's Happening 6Classifieds 6

Central to this model of inclusive edu-cation, is the belief that all students havevaried needs and abilities and are entitledto participate fully in their community. Tothis end, it is important that special needsstudents complete their high school pro-gram with age appropriate peers and beprovided the opportunity to participate ina post-high school program like theirpeers. The Saint Joseph College com-munity provides special needs students theopportunity to experience social activities,vocational and community based training,which will enrich and improve the qualityof their lives and hopefully their indepen-dence as adults.

In the short time we have been herethe Saint Joseph College community hasmade us feel welcome. Martin Snyder,Bill Cardarelli, Bettyanne Janelle, DebbieBaer, Kieran Myers, Phil Malinoski,

Charlie Morrell, the Registrar's OfficeStaff, Denise Evans and everyone in theBookstore have all helped us move inand feel at home. We are looking for-ward to meeting and working with fac-ulty, staff, and ESPECIALLYSTUDENTS to help us facilitate thisinclusive model.

Come and visit us any time. We arelocated in McGovern Hall, room SR4,everyday from 8 o'clock until 2:30. Ourextension number is 486.

Winifred Coleman, PresidentSt. Joseph College1678 Asylum AvenueWest Hartford, CT 06117

Dear Winnie.

I thought I would share some good news with you. I met with my staff on January 18th, 1995for a mid-year up-date on the Post-Grad Special Needs Program at St. Joseph College. I havelisted their comments below.

Also, I will be presenting this program at the National CEC Conference in Indianapolis in April.

"What are the positives of the Special Needs Program at St. Josephthat you have seen this year?"

The students are coming to conclusions on their own.The students are making realistic choices.There seems to be a higher level of intellectual processing.There seems to be more willingness on the part of the studcats to trynew and different activities.

The students are displaying very appropriate behavior in social situations.The students have adjusted very well to the campus program.The students realize that they need to wear a watch.The campus provides a balance between a new environment andgeographic security.There have been a wide variety of experiences and opportunities availableto the students; bookstore, cafeteria, fitness center, library, dorms, activitiescenter, bulletin boards, special events such as craft fairs or musical performancesThe program is completely inter-disciplinary.The program is life-centered and focuses on real and meaningful daily living.The Students are included in an age appropriate environment.

Thank you for your help and continued support.

Sincerely,

Alex der T. Nardone, Ph.D.

KEEPING AT A HEALTHY WEIGHT

Fact Shoot

When you weigh more than your body frame can handle easily you become overweight. Thisis harmful to your health and may make your life shorter. Some health problems of beingoverweight are: high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease.

Below is a body weight chart. Can you find what you should weigh? You will need to findyour height first. Work with a partner to find out how tall you are. Be sure to take yourshoes off.

ARE YOU "FIT"?

You can't change your basic body build. But here's some GOOD NEWS whatever the bodytype you have, you can be healthy and in good shape.

Weight range charts (like the onehere) can help you tell you have aweight problem, but they don't tell Ifyou are fit.

Some people who weigh more thanthe chart shows are FIT becausetheir extra weight is in muscle, notfat. Overweight is a problem only ifthose extra pounds are in fat.

Some people who are in the weightrange for their height are not FIT.They need to exercise for theirhealth.

Are you FIT? Do you exercise? Doyou eat right?
