,1,, Lumberiack Dinner Dance swi_ngs to success The first Alpei1a Community College Foundation dinner-dance fund raiser at the Civic Center on April I 0, 1987 was an outstanding success. The event began with a sociable cocktail hour at 6: 30pm and was followed by a delicious prime rib dinner at 7:30pm. Shortly after 9pm, the highlight of the evening --dancing to the " Big Band Sound" of Tommy Dorsey--was in full swing . . The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, conducted by Buddy Morrow, quickly set a light mood for the smiling couples with a variety of tunes from the Big Band Era. Approximately 270 people attended the fund raiser according to Dr. Charles Donnelly. "It's a good turn out," he stated. And, he further added, "We've probably made soinewhere hetween $4000- 5000 this evening for the Founda- tion." The proceeds of the event will go into the ACC Foundation E;1dowment Fund whch now holds between $200,000 and $300,000 .' The long term goal of the Founda- tion Board is to 1:_,uild up the fund to create a• sizable interest income for ACC . students creating placement program A few members of Mr. Founiier's System Development Class have been creating a program to help students find jobs. This program. led by Dennis Mayo, will take the information given on an application in the placement office and put it on a computer. If successful, the placement system would pay .for itself. The system would make it easier to refer a student to a job. As more students would get jobs, more people would enroll at ACC. One minor problem is the bud- get. It would cost too much to hire a full time recruiter to go to com- panies and contact potential em- ployers. The program started last fall and is currently investigating its next options. It is hoped the program will be completed by the end of the semester.

The ACC library has recently added more volumes to their Social Issues Resource_ Series (S.l.R .S.). This series covers topics ranging alphabetically ' from Aging to Youth. These new· volumes arrived late last semester and bring the total value of the series up to a little over $3,000. Each volume contains 100 . articles, 20 articles every year, from various sources, such as magazines, documents, and newspapers.' According to Mr. Tetzlaff, director of Learning Resource Center, "The SJ.R.S. are a quick and easy periodical source -beca1,1-se they each contain their own index plus the article itself." This means that when you look in the index and find an article that you want, all you have to do is flip some pages. You don't have ~o go anywhere else to find it or take a . chance on the library not having the magazine that contains the article. , The S.l.R.S. also has a quick reference guide to all volumes on every subject and a cross reference guide to major topics. The S.I.R.S. is faster but not as thorough as the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature . The new volumes and, in some cases, topics, include Aging, Con- sumerism, Corrections, Ethics, Ethnic Groups, Family, Habitat, Privacy, Religion, School, the Third World. Transportation, and Youth. Siegert becomes editor of 'The Log' Marlena Siegert, evening tech- nician at ACC , also moonlights as editor of the staff newspaper. The faculty's paper, 'The_ Log', is a bi- w~ekly publication. Siegert is responsible for all aspects of the paper except print- ing, which is done by the Graphic Arts Department. As a 1986 grad- uate of ACC. Siegert felt that the newspaper work would be a great way to utilize her graphic art skills and her three semesters of journal- ism. The position of editor became ,vacant when Jackie Timm resigned to take another position with the college. Siegert offered her services to the publication . Come join THE ROUND TABLE at their new extended movie hours! Friday and Saturday Open till 10:00pm Has she run into any major problems? According to Siegert - nothing major, just trying to get material; a task that · can some- times prove to be , very difficult . The newspaper aims to provide stories of interest to the faculty. Siegert contends that she has not made any big plans for future issues. However , she has changed the 8 I /2" x 11" sheet to an 8 I /2" x 14" sheet. Siegert would have also liked to have done the photo- graphy, however, <ltd not have the _ ,time. The paper already requires eight hours of work. With a new takeover in faculty publications Siegert is hoping that people will become more receptive to giving ideas on material for the paper. So, open your ears and tell Marlena.
