ARCHIVES Jf— THOMAS NELSON COMMUNITY COLLEGE Vol. IV, No. 22 Just a Reminder! Summer Hours Begin Today! In case you forgot, summer hours begin today! Through August 5, the college will observe a summer work schedule of 4 1/2 days per week consisting of four 8.7 hour days (8 hours, 45 minutes) Monday through Thursday and five hours on Friday. The normal college summer office hours will be Monday-Thursday, 7:30 a.m.-5:15 p.m. and Friday, 7:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Those offices normally open for service from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. will modify their service hours in the morning and afternoon (8 a.m.-4:45 p.m.) Two holidays, Memorial Day and Independence Day, occur while the college is observing summer hours. Since the state allows only eight hours of leave for holidays, the summer work week schedule will be adjusted for these holiday observances. On Friday, May 31, all offices will remain open until 1:15 p.m. to compensate for the 45 minutes not covered by holiday leave on Memorial Day, May 27. An employee taking leave on May 31 must submit a leave form for 5.7 hours. In observance of Independence Day, the college will be closed on July 4 and 5, giving us a four day holiday. In order to make up for having July 5 off, the work schedule will consist of three 10.6 (10 hours, 40 minutes), Monday through Wednesday. Offices will remain open until 6:40 p.m. with a half hour lunch break on these three days. Any employee taking leave time should submit a leave form for 10.6 hours. Supervisors may approve flex time in accordance with Policy 3.12 of the Administrative Procedures Manual. If you have any questions, call the Personnel office at ext. 2728. Thomas Nelson Student Receives Virginia Scholar Award Dale A. Harlow, a student at Thomas Nelson Community College, was one of forty-five outstanding students recently selected to receive the Virginia Scholar Awards from the State Council of Higher Education. He is majoring in Business Administration and carries a 4.0 grade point average (GPA) and will graduate with an Associate in Applied Science degree on May 13. Harlow plans to continue his major in business with a concentration in accounting at The College of William and Mary where he was been accepted for the Fall 1991 semester. All nominees were selected from a pool of 1,126 individuals from public and private high schools and 33 graduates of public two-year colleges who plan to transfer to a four-year Virginia college to complete a baccalaureate degree. Harlow was one of four community college graduates to receive the Scholars Award. Each scholar will receive a $3000 stipend which can be renewed up to three additonal years, but the scholar must maintain a "B" average or place in the top 25 percent of their college class as determined by college May 13,1991 or university officials at the close of each academic year. Harlow is a resident of Newport News, and has been employed by Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS) for nine years, working full-time while earning his degree at Thomas Nelson. He is a member of the NNS Apprentice Alumni Association and the Virginia Collegiate Honors Council. Harlow enjoys teaching Tae Kwon Do, weight-lifting, football, and spending time with his wife Cheryl, and his two daughters, Janice Lynne, eleven and Mary Ellen, six. New Ability to Benefit Regulations by Rennie L. Wolfe The Federal Government has recently enacted and subsequently amended legislation directed at non-high school graduates pursuing financial aid for college attendance. The purpose of the Ability to Benefit legislation is to ensure that students without high school diplomas (or the equivalent) who are applying for financial aid, have the ability to benefit from the education they are pursuing. This group of students must demonstrate the "ability to benefit" on a test approved by the U.S. Department of Education. Original legislation regarding this requirement was implemented January 1,1991, but due to a great deal of confusion (and a very short timetable for implementation) the Department of Education has delayed enactment of the legislation until July 1,1991.
