Language Across the Curriculum (LAC)at SCS offers one semester hour,pass/fail courses in a variety of lan-guages. LAC sections are small discus-sion groups led by a faculty member wellversed in a second language.

LAC sections are offered in conjunctionwith a primary course, although enroll-ment in the primary course may not berequired. With a teaching style that ismore relaxed than regular classes, LACsections will generally meet once a weekfor a roundtable discussion of assign-ments in a second language designed toenhance the international outlook of theprimary course.

Although the use of a non-English lan-guage will be an essential aspect of theLAC sections, the use of the target lan-guage will emerge on the basis of the in-terest and the skill levels of the studentsinvolved, and the discussion will takeplace in English to the extent necessaryfor everyone to understand everythingthat is discussed. Some faculty teachingthe primary courses might choose toprovide students with the opportunity tocomplete research projects in a secondlanguage instead of the weekly meetings.

The purpose of Language Across theCurriculum sections is to ensure that stu-dents acquire cross-cultural competencythrough the use of their language skillsin the context of another discipline. Thegoal is ease of communication, not per-fect grammar or syntax. While LAC stu-dents use foreign languages to discusssubjects of particular interest to them,they are improving their fluency, vocabu-lary and grasp of the primary course ma-terial. Programs like Richmond’s exist atforward-thinking universities across thecountry.

Language Across the Curriculum can beused as a different kind of resource forSCS students of different needs but it’sespecially useful for those wanting to en-

hance the global aspect of their learningexperience. Native-speakers may alsoenjoy this program. LAC provides themwith opportunities to discuss and en-hance what they’re learning in English, intheir native languages.

In essence, any student with a back-ground in a second language will findLAC to be a useful and enjoyable pro-gram.

In Fall 2008, we’re offering three LACoptions for SCS students:

• LAC 250U–Human ResourceManagement: LAC Spanish

• LAC 257U–Emergency ServicesManagement: LAC Glosa (Online)

• LAC 550U–Human ResourceManagement: LAC Spanish

See page 28 for detailed course informa-tion. Contact your advisor with any ques-tions.

Meet David WeaverSCS’07, Liberal Arts andTeacher Licensure Preparation

Recently named Hanover County’s Beginning Teacher of theYear, David Weaver just finished his first year as an 8th gradeCivics and Economics teacher at Chickahominy Middle School.He’s not your typical first year teacher. After all, he’s almost 52and a 25-year veteran of the architectural design industry. Buthe is a part of a growing trend in the Richmond area: profes-sionals returning to school to become teachers.

The Teacher Licensure Preparation program at the School ofContinuing Studies has prepared hundreds of adults to transitionfrom established careers into the field of education and meet thehigh demand for teachers in our region. David earned his Bache-lor of Liberal Arts degree with a concentration in secondary edu-cation. Individuals who have already have a bachelor’s degreeearn a Graduate Certificate in Teacher Licensure Preparation(TLP).

Q:Why did you return to school?DW: I started my bachelor’s degree at JMU many years ago,but it wasn’t a priority for me at that point in my life. As I pro-gressed in my professional career I came to realize I needed adegree, so I took classes here and there over the next severalyears. My wife, Terri, and I moved to Richmond about fiveyears ago, and with our kids out of college and on their own, Ifinally ran out of excuses.

Q:What made you want to pursue teaching?DW: Short answer: My wife, Terri. She’s been telling me for 30years I would make a good teacher, and I finally listened to her.My children have also been an inspiration; through them, I un-derstand the importance of a positive school experience, and Iwould like to provide the same positive experience to other kids.

Q:What’s the best thing about teaching for you?DW: I really enjoy being around the kids. Despite what you seein the media, we’re still raising fine young people today.They’re honest, bright, enthusiastic, and they challenge meeach day to be my best.

Q: How would you describe your experience at University ofRichmond?DW: Stimulating and engaging. The program at SCS allowedme to articulate ideas and principles that I have held for a longtime but never had a forum to voice. The instructors introducedme to areas of literature, history, and the arts that truly ex-panded my world view.

Q:What did you like best about the TLP program?DW:What I liked best about the TLP program was the qualityof instruction. Every instructor in the program brought years ofreal-world experience into the classroom, and they shared theirexperiences honestly and generously.

Q:What are your future plans?DW: I really enjoy what I’m doing and I want to get better at it,so I plan to spend some time this summer researching my sub-ject and getting ready for next year.

Q: You were just named the Beginning Teacher of the Year forHanover County. How does that make you feel?DW: Incredibly lucky. I feel very fortunate to have landedwhere I did, surrounded by supportive administrators, seasonedprofessional educators, and dedicated staff.

Tuition Payment Plan fromTuition PayWhat is Tuition Pay?Tuition Pay by Sallie Mae is an educa-tional financing company that providesfamilies and students with a low cost planfor budgeting tuition and other educationexpenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly planis NOT a loan program, therefore nodebt is incurred. There is no interest orfinance charge assessed by Tuition Pay onthe unpaid balance due to the college.The only fee to budget payments throughTuition Pay is a $35.00 per semester non-refundable enrollment fee. Paymentsmade through Tuition Pay are consider-ably less expensive than the cost of ob-taining loans, paying with credit cards, orbudgeting through other interest or fee-charging payment plans. There is nocredit search or qualifications necessaryto use Tuition Pay.One of the reasons why the cost tobudget with Tuition Pay is so affordableis because payments through Tuition Payare made by using automatic paymentsfrom your bank. The automatic paymenthelps you budget tuition payments in aconvenient way which ensures that thecollege will receive dependable and con-sistent tuition payments. With Tuition Payyou never miss a payment and you savethe time and expense of writing andmailing checks.

How does the automaticpayment work?Automatic payments are simply paymentsthat you authorize your bank to make onyour behalf on a specific date eachmonth. The amount paid by your bank isa predetermined amount that you haveauthorized. Your bank will make thesepayments from either your checking or

savings account, according to the instruc-tions you have provided on your agree-ment with Tuition Pay. Payments will bemade until the total amount due to thecollege is paid in full. Automatic pay-ments are used to pay mortgages, life in-surance premiums, car payments, utilities,and other types of bills.When you use Tuition Pay to pay yourschool tuition, your bank sends your pay-ment on the 5th of the month directly tothe bank that Tuition Pay uses to collecttuition payments. Before any payment ismade, Tuition Pay provides evidence ofyour authorization for tuition paymentsto your bank. Your bank will usually ver-ify this authorization with you and thenset up the payment schedule. It is impor-tant to remember that Tuition Pay andyour college never see your bank accountor have any direct access to your account.You never lose any control of your ac-count. The automatic payment process isstrictly controlled by state and federallaws. With Tuition Pay your payments aremade on the 5th of each month.

Budget PeriodTo qualify for the 3-month payment plan,Tuition Pay must receive student applica-tions by August 10th for the Fall semesteror December 10th for the Spring semes-ter. The budget period is August throughOctober for the Fall semester and Januarythrough March for the Spring semester.The Tuition Pay payment plan is notavailable for courses offered during theSummer semester.
