However $50 - 60 thousand per year is being discussed. Establishment of a micro computer instruction facili- ty with 24 units is the top priority for this year. Equip- ment has been ordered and some units are expected by year-end. An elective course in micro computer operation has been developed for students in the Agricultural Business Management and Food Service Management courses already. Eventually all students in the four diploma courses at the college will receive training in micro computer operation before they graduate. In time. one or two advanced courses may also be offered.
