    Writing practice to
Students who have trouble
expressing themselves in
writing can find help in a new
class being offered this fall.
A class which will help
develop writing skills is being
organized by the UN-L School
of Journalism in cooperation
with the Teaching and
Learning Center.
"We don't view these
courses as remedial," said Gene
Harding, director of the
Teaching and Learning Center.
"They are being designed to
help pinpoint students writing
problems and help them
correct these problems."
Jim Patten, journalism
associate professor and
coordinator of the classes, said,
"We are going to try to take
people who are having trouble
. with writing, and with practice
hope that they can develop a
writing ability that will help
them with school in general."
Help in testing
Writing skills developed in
the class should help students
not only in writing English
papers, but in taking tests and
writing papers for other classes,
Patten said.
Three sections of the class
will be offered through the
extension division and will be
taught by graduate students In
journalism. . '
"When we saw what good
qualifications applicants for
our graduate program had we
decided to use them as
instructors," said Neale
Copple, director of the School
of Journalism.
"We recognize that some of
the graduate students will go
into teaching and any
experience they can get will be
useful to them," Copple said,

classes downtown but all 4aw
classes are on east campus,
which might make it more
inconvenient for law students
to come downtown, he said.
Shuttle service offered
A shuttle service between
stores will be offered, Wehr
said. Special orders placed for
items not carried at the east
campus store should be filled
within 24 hours.
The books will not be
self-service, he said, adding that
both used and new books will
be available.
: "We're going to try to split
the used books available for
one class between the
downtown and east campus
stores," Wehr said.
If the store is successful
there are plans for opening it
year around and possibly for
building a new store, Wehr
said.
