A U U ULljUuLz: fcM LJ U 1 1 11 lr Ir-3 1 V The Official Student Newspaper of Utah Technical College at Provo'Orem, P.O. Box 1609, Provo, Utah 84603 Friday, September 28, 1984 PaDD (olaaaeo' (LUro Dim 8GnGdleiniG EdimOQ lira Dim UTC is pleased with the heavy turnout in fall registration. At first the student count looked low, however, the last two days of registration have been so heavy, that registration officials have had to extend registration dates. Fall quarter has normally been the heaviest student populated quarter in the past. This year will be no exception, but enrollment figures are lower than UTC administrators had projected. Because of the overwhelming registration last fall, that resulted in having hundreds of students turned away, UTC was appropriated extra funds to accommodate the rise in registration. The enrollment and application totals are not yet at the enrollment goal of 7,000. Although some of UTech's programs are full, Higbee said that, with additional classroom space, faculty, staff and equipment this fall, most students interested in attending the college will have little trouble getting in. "We have adequate room for more students," he said. Programs that are closed this fall quarter and that also were closed last fall include dental assisting, diesel mechanics, electronics, electrical and automation, practical nursing and radiology. Rulon Wells Chosen as Teacher Rulon Wells, an instructor and Chairman in the Electrical and Automation Department was recently named Teacher of the Year at Utah Technical College. Among his many respon sibilities and accomplishments at UTC, Mr. Wells has served on the College curriculum Committee for 3 years, has served as president of the Faculty Senate for 1 year and has written and or assisted in writing the education specifications for the Technology, Trades and Environmental Technology Buildings on the Orem campus. He also takes an active part in his community by serving for 5 years on the advisory committee for the Continuing Education Program at BYU and by writing and teaching apprenticeship programs for Kennecott Copper Corporation. President J. Marvin Higbee presented the award to Mr. Wells, saying that "Rulon has earned the respect of his colleagues and his students through his unselfish dedication to his professionalism. He continued by saying, "I believe that the Teacher of the Year should be someone chosen on merit alone. It is so meone that is reliable, depen dable and conscientious. So meone who never misses a class day unless absolutely necessary. Someone who has the student's concern first and everything else second. Someone who is dedicated to the school and always goes the ex tra mile." Heavy equipment operation and lineman training, which were closed last fall, are still open this fall because of enrollment decreases. The number of applications received by the end of August, compared with a year ago, also shows significant decreases in business data processing (down from 179 to 109), welding (57 to 17), refrigeration (44 to 17), collision repair (33 to 19), auto mechanics (56 to 34), drafting (97 to 79) and graphics (62 to 45). Other enrollment decreases are apparent in accounting, building construction, cabinet making, early child development, general education, hotelrestaurant management and machine shop. However, increases in enrollment have occurred in business management . (up form 170 to 218), office education (128 to 189), professional driving (10 to 16) and fashion merchandising (53 to 55). Higbee said he is surprised by the enrollment decrease, which he partially attributes to the improving economy. "When there's an upturn in the economy and unemployment goes down, enrollment at colleges and universities also goes down," said Higbee. "And when unemployment is up, there's usually a significant of the Year Rulon Wells was presented the Teacher of the Year Award by President J. Marvin Higbee. "Rulon Wells meets all the above criteria and is one of the few instructors who continues to take courses and special training that will improve himself and his program. He does it solely to benefit his program and his students," said Higbee. He complimented Mr. Wells for visiting industries and meeting with representatives from places of business in order to keep abreast of the latest technologies. "He then incorporates this information into his curriculum. He wants his students to be aware of the latest technology and equipment they will encounter in their employment. Many times he fabricates new training aids on his own just so that his students may learn a new concept," Higbee added. Mr. Wells is also a member of the U.S. Navy Reserve. In this capacity he is an instruc ? V Students jammed the halls of the Provo campus registering for Fall Quarter increase in enrollment. I think this is the case around the state." But though the number of applications is down, Higbee said, the percentage of those registering after being ac- tor in the Shipboard similar, where he trains other naval reservists to become combat ready. When he goes on active duty each year, he inspects Navy ships to make sure they are combat ready. He has taken over a hundred technical Navy correspondence courses. He has also acquired over 200 semester hours of college work since coming to work at UTC. He holds professional certificates in the following rreas: Industrial Arts Teaching Certificate; Secondary Teaching Certificate; Professional Technical Teaching Certificate, and Journeyman Electrical License. "Rulon is truly dedicated to the school. He is admired by his students and fellow facul ty members. We are indeed fortunate to have someone the! caliber of Rulon Wells on our faculty," Higbee said.
