Representatives and safety professionals from Region IV (the Southeast) and the Pied- mont section of ASSE were in attendance to grant the charter. During the ceremony, the Pied- mont section donated $2,000 in start-up funds for. students to attend conferences, complete health and safety research, and bring technical speakers to WCU, The section also provided three $1,000 scholarships to WCU ASSE student members based on academic achieve- ment, service and need. The scholarships will be awarded in late March, The affiliation between ASSE and WCU is extremely important to the professional de- velopment of our students, said Tracy Zontek, assistant profes- sor of environmental health at WCU. The Piedmont section and Region LV have worked tirelessly to integrate WCU stu- dents into professional confer- ences, internships and employ- ment after graduation. Student members of the new chapter agree. Environmental health students pride themselves ~.

A part of environmental health is worker safety, and ASSE is one of the best organizations for not only keeping our nations workers safe, but lobbying Congress to keep pace with emerging tech- nologies and their possible dan- gers. By having a chapter here, the environmental health pro- gram is strengthened, and in turn, students are more prepared upon graduation. ASSE has supported WCU _ Student research and funded 12 students to participate in pro- fessional conferences, research competitions and the National Safety Leadership Conference, said Zontek.

This year, the con- ference will provide an opportu- nity for students to give resumes directly to employers, and to in- terview for internships and per- manent employment. T cannot overstate the incred- ible opportunities this affiliation has created for our students, es- pecially as we implement'the Quality Enhancement Plan in our program, said Zontek. The QEP is a universitywide effort to improve the quality of under- graduate education by helping students link academic and co- curricular activities, Representatives of ASSE say the new student chapter at WCU will help meet those goals.
