In a rapidly changing environment of growing competition for limited resources and ever increasing operational costs, institutions of higher education must focus on all aspects of the organizational functions to insure institutional effectiveness and the maximization of student success. This study will use a Student Environment Model (SEM) to assess students' perception of their college environment outside of the formal classroom at a unique two year technical college. The information obtained is used by the administration of Texas State Technical College Waco (TSTCW) to make appropriate adjustments in programs, services, or policies when the student data indicates that change or improvement is needed. While the SEM provides an indication of the students' "image" of the college environment, it can also provide indicators of areas which need improvement or require change. Applying the SEM information to decision making, problem solving, and planning will allow the institution and its people to move toward higher productivity and continuous quality improvement.

The purpose of this study is to appraise the club program as carried out in South Waco, attempting to determine the value of the program in an elementary school.

Youthful karst topography and entrenched drainage are two conspicuous geomorphic aids in interpreting the geologic history of the Waco Springs quadrangle. Three high angle, dip slip strike faults of the Balcones system, displaced toward the coast, have off-set all, and exposed most, of the southeastward dipping Comanchean and Gulfian rocks. Broad shallow anticlines are created by a "reversal of dip" on each downthrown fault block. Waco Springs, located in the southwestern part of the map area, has a separate groundwater reservoir from the remainder of the quadrangle, and its discharge is dependent on rainfall concentrated in central Comal County. / text
