Champion and GDCI, learning together By Shelley McPhee Haist Huron County Board of Education direc- tor Bob Allan has described it as an explora- tion in education, as an exciting new pro- gram, as the beginning of a new line of lear- ning and teaching techniques. Board of education trustees at their January meeting, agreed to commit suffi- cient funding to s.. ,port a new program the Ties to Business and Industry Incentive Fund project between Goderich District Col- legiate Institute (GDCI) and Champion Machinery Ltd. for a two year approval period. The program is designed to establish meaningful links between Champion and GDCI as the primary goal. This could in- clude the provision of school services to the company in exchange for access to Cham- pion facilities to introduce school students to contemporary technology in a manufactur- ing environment. Mr. Allan said that Champion has a well developed marketing system, advanced technical facilities, computer and work pro- cessing systems that coup be made available as educational tools for high school students. In turn, GDCI for instance, is offering a course in blueprint reading for employees at Champion. On a broader scale, the project is designed to assist all of the Huron County Board of Education secondary school with the im- plementation and recommendations from the 1986 Review of Technological studies. The Champion-GDCI program is seen as a model to assist other schools in developing program directions that are relevant to community and regional needs. The program has received Ministry of Education support and a $15,000 grant per year has been approved. This amount is bas- ed on a rate of grant of 75 per cent and is ap- plied to the maximum fundable budget of $20,000. The Huron County Board of Educa- tion will spend a minimum of $5,000 on the program.

All agreed that prayer was an ef- fective weapon against abortion. Six members attended the 24-hour Prayer Vigil in front of the illegal Morgentaler abortion clinic on December 10.
