MCC Plans Workshop On Community Services A workshop at McHenry County college, May 25, on "The Community in the Community College" is a chance for the general public and persons who plan the services at community colleges . to get together and taHTabout community needs. !" The daylong program will include panel discussions in volving the presidents of five area community colleges, trustees from th^e same colleges and heads of com munity service organizations from different areas of the state. Among the participants will be Dr. James R. Davis, MCC president; Dr. Mark Hopkins, Elgin Community college president; and Dr. Karl J. Jacobs, president of Rock Valley college. Bill Biscomb, president of the Forum for Community Ser vices in McHenry county, will be among those on the com munity resource panel along with Connie Maris, who has retired as head of Protestant Community services in Rock- ford. Peter Stuckey, MCC associate dean of instruction for community services, ex plained the community college people hope that interested citizens will attend the workshop to give them feed back about existing programs and to hear about programs underway at other community colleges which they could consider for adoption at MCC. Stuckey said that among the community services currently offered at MCC are lecture series, a recent seminar for businessmen sponsored in conjunction with Chambers of Commerce, programs with county jail inmates, high school "early leavers", mentally retarded persons, and work with CETA to help unemployed people and people seeking better jobs. The workshop, which lasts from 9:30 a.m. until 3:15 p.m., is jointly sponsored by MCC, Rock Valley college, Highland Community college, the Illinois Humanities council, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. A fee is charged for attending the workshop which includes lunch. Persons interested in attending are asked to call the office of community services to reserve a seat at the workshop. by JOSEPH COOLS stuff psychologist -- news from the Family Service and Mentel Health Clinic of McHenry County -- (Editor's note: This is the twenty-eighth in a series of especially written articles for McHenry County readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health staff. This article is "Coping - Obesity.") It is important to distinguish in any case of ol&sity whether there is a medical problem causing overweight, or a familial tendency^ towards overweight, a genetic predisposition, an emotional problem, or a combination of several factors. In the obese adult, when the problem with weight is due primarily to emotional factors, the problem cannot be ap proached from a strictly medical point of view with diet and medication as the therapy of choice. Such a program is doomed to failure before it starts. Inevitably the over weight person will either fail to stick to the diet, or if the person does stick to the diet and loses the desired amount, quickly regains every ounce of the weight in a short period of time. The reason for this is that food, or rather the intake of food, usually in large quantities, provides an emotional gratification that is otherwise lacking. Thus, with a reduced food intake and weight loss the person feels increasingly anxious and depressed. It is as if the person has been not only deprived of food, but also emotional warmth and security. Thus, even though the person may be sincerely in terested in losing weight, he is unable to give up the emotional security associated with food. The treatment of choice in this type of obesity combines diet with psychotherapy. The therapy is aimed at helping the obese patient find alternative methods of emotional gratification and helping the person to realize that food has taken on a symbolic meaning beyond simple body nourish ment. Obesity is a very difficult problem to deal with due to the immediate gratification that food offers, as well as the difficulty of giving up what has become a lifelong habit. Opals Opals, noted for their vivid hues, sell on the open market for up to $3,000 a carat. The stones rre formed when silica-laden oundwater seeps into bedrock icks and evaporates, cement ing the particles together. The prismatic effect of light bending around the silica causes the opals'colors to glow. „ /VU ) N I ( »( )/V\F KY Paint sale. 9 9 One-Coat 7-color exterior latex. • Dries in just 30 minutes to flat finish • Hands, brushes clean up in soap^ water EXTERIOR FLAt EXTERIOR LATEX FLA' TRIM PAINI HOUSE ••• House&Tnnn Silicone Acry|,c La,e Ona Coat Superior DurabH'** K)0 Colors Easy Application Uniform Finish ^ Blister.
