  • The Western Carolinian Page 3 Thursday February 9,1989 WCU's DEC There for Children By Colin Burch STAFF WRITER WCU's Developmental Evaluation Center, DEC, is making it possible for children under three years of age with developmental difficulties to get their problems identified and to get help with therapy. The DEC is also counseling and instructing parents about the child's needs in the home or child- care settings. "Wc go where the children arc," says Hoyt Ponder, director of the center and its early intervention program. There arc three early intervention specialists headquartered in Haywood, Jackson, and Cherokee counties. These specialists go into homes in those counties and Clay, Graham, Swain, and Macon counties as well as the Cherokee reservation. Working with 15 to 20 infants and toddlers each, they evaluate family situations and help STA's On The Road Again by Jennifer Stroud STAFF WRITER During the course of the year, the speech and theatre arts department will sponsor numerous trips. The purpose of these trips is to sec plays at other schools, such as University of Tennessee and UNC-A. At the moment, the department is looking into a trip to the University of Tennessee in order to sec "Deja Vu". The play runs from February 3-18 and according STA professor, Donald Loeffler, "Deja Vu" should be of great interest to the students. "It has an original script and the directoris seeking a broadway producer," Dr. Loeffler said. "It should also prove to be a very interesting comedy." Although there are no definite plans at the moment for the trip to UT, there arc plans to attend theatre school in London from May 8-29.Thc May in London Theatre Courses will be seminars offered in Section 42- Contcmporary British Drama, Section 43-World Drama, and Section 44-Shakespcarc in Production. The cost of the tour will be $1900. Students, however, can receive financial aid in the form of a student loan from the financial aid office in the administration building. The group will also sec sights such as Cambridge, Chester, and Edinborough, Scotland while on the tour. The group may also sec such broad- way plays as "The Aspects of Love" and "Walk in the Woods". Anyone who is interested in going on this trip or any other trip should contact Dr. Loeffler in his office at 227- 7491. Hoyt Ponder parents with basic feeding and positioning techniques. The children they work with have impaired hearing, cerebral palsy, or Downs Syndrome. According to Ponder, children may just seem to have difficulty in developing and growing. This may include trouble turning over, crawling, walking, hearing, or talking. Other difficulties include doing tasks for themselves such as dressing, feeding, and toileting. Though any one or two of these problems may not mean the child is at risk of developing long-term conditions, a combination of difficulties may warrant some therapy. The Early Childhood Intervention Service, working through WCU's Developmental Evaluation Center, is now in its third year of operation. Funded through the N.C. Developmental Disabilities Council and Smoky Mountain Center for Mental Health and Mental Retardation, WCU's program provides for the expertise of physicians, physical therapists, speech pathologists and other specialists and special equipment.

NC CPAs Upbeat About Business Conditions The next six months look good for business, according to a recent polling of members of the North Carolina Association of Certified Public Accountants (NCACPA). Seventy- six percent of the CPAs polled in North Carolina believe that current general business conditions in the country are either excellent or good. Eighty-two percent expect conditions six months from now to be about the same as they are currently, and another five percent expect conditions to improve. However, the longer- term outlook is more mixed. Half of North Carolina respondents expect present business conditions in the country to hold up over the next year. The proportion expecting conditions to worsen is 40 percent. Regarding current general business conditions in North Carolina, 94 percent of the respondents rate them as either excellent or good, with only 6 percent viewing them as either fair of poor. Seventy-eight percent expect conditions in six months to be about the same as they arc now, with another 15 percent expecting conditions to improve. The longer-term outlook is also generally quite favorable, although just under a quarter of the respondents antici pate a decline in general business conditions a year from now. According to NCACPA President Ruth M. Rogers, "The results of this survey are quite significant, largely due to the exposure of CPAs to all aspects of today's business and financial world." Regarding other economic indicators, North Carolina CPAs expect the state's inflation rate to remain fairly constant during the next six months. While on the other hand?almost half of the respondents anticipate higher inflation in North Carolina a year from now. The majority of CPAs polled predict the state's unemployment rate will remain largely unchanged during the next year. Regarding interest rates, over half of the respondents anticipate higher rates in North Carolina a year from now. Almost 80% of those polled see the federal budget deft-, cit as the most important factor affecting the economy in 1989, with over half predicting an even higher deficit one year from now. The North Carolina Association of CPAs is a nonprofit statewide professional organization of CPAs, with over 6,700 members working in the areas of public practice, industry, government and education.
