CAMPUS UPDATE, May 6, 1980, Page 4 Staff Featu Jule Hartwick Bev Brandenburg, Staff Reporter “| decided to become a Librarian through my enjoyment of books,” said Jule Hartwick recently. “| felt | could help students, staff and patrons, of the Library develop a desire for knowledge through books.” Hartwick has been the ACC libra- rian since 1957 and has taught courses in library technician science for the past 23 years. This year he retires. Hartwick is a native of Lansing. After military service from 1941- 1945, he started his education, Before becoming a librarian, he taught English at Oxford for one year. His first library post was in Garden City, followed by work at gther Michigan schools. During the 23 years Hartwick has: been librarian, he has seen many changes. The library has grown from one tiny room «hich was shared by three libraries to the present spa- cious foom on the second ftoor of the NRC building. The number of volumes has grown as well, from 2,900 in 1953 to more than 30,000 in 1980. “am sure my replacement: wilt have his or her own ideas on the improvements or additions in the library.” Hartwick commented. He added, ‘‘Upon my retirement... | will miss daily contact with the stu- dents and their feference question needs.’” : After retirement, Hartwick and his wife Thelma, a retired ACC math ‘teacher, will enjoy @ trip to Norway. He will also spend more time’‘’en- jo¥ing my hobbies: making jewelry, rock collecting, puttering with wood making, fishing, and traveling.’ Classified Ads HAMS & BACON AVAILABLE AGAIN!

Joggers should be reminded that pedestrian accidents claimed the lives of 354 persons last year--a fig- ure that represents about 17% of all traffic deaths in Michigan. As a case in point, a recent article in the Detroit Free Press indicated that a 70 year-old Belle Isle jogger was killed when one car involved in acrash with another jumped the curb where the man was running. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Common sense should dictate that certain basic precautions be taken while jogging. For example, wearing light colored clothing or reflective arm or leg bands at night, or even carrying a small light where it can be seen easily by oncoming traffic. Po- lice officials also say it is okay to leave your wallet at home, but rec- ommend that some form of identi- fication be carried in case something does happen. The best advice--be stant! traffic--regardless The ACC Classic Film Series offers Death in Venice on Thursday, May 8. at’7:30 p.m. in NRC 150.

Schwiesow plans to minor in Athletic Training, a fairly new field in physical education. State laws may someday require an ath- letic trainer to be available at every school-related sporting event to pro- vide preventative medicine and im- mediate aid in case of injuries. Her main goal, however, is to be an ele- mentary school teacher. “| think the quality of education depends on the teachers and how much extra time they’re willing to put in,“says Schwiesow,”Too many teachers are pushing kids through school without caring whether or not the students actually gain any knowledge or experience through the class. |’d like to work toward being available after class is over, not run out of the door when my eight hours are up. | want to be de- dicated enough to give extra help to NEED AN ATTORNEY?
