DON PEASLEY PHOTOGRAPHY • Lifestyles Of Women Today- Knowledgeable Role Change McHenry County college is having a special day for women in recognition of the changes in women's lifestyles in recent years. "More and more women are either going back to school, going to work, or making other changes in the way they live their lives. McHenry County college is trying to serve the women in our community, and we hope Women's Information day March 11 will help us do that," explains Nancy Loomis, MCC's affirmative action director. The day is planned especially for women-both as an in­ troduction to the varied courses and services offered by MCC and as a chance for women in the community to share ideas with each other and tell MCC about their needs. Participants will attend two separate workshops during the day, each one hour long, covering topics on "Creative Play with Children"Facts About the ERA ", "Decision Making", and "Becoming a Home Handy Person". The Saturday program will also include a spring luncheon, and entertainment by MCC speech instructor Suzanne Vadasz who will read from the writings of Judith Viorst and Lois Wyse on "Mid-life Crisis: Laugh It or Live It". In the afternoon the Rev. Barbara Merritt, of the Congregational Universalist church in Woodstock, will speak on "Winging It-A Flight Through Higher Education". The day will start with coffee and tours of the MCC campus. The schedule calls for the in­ formation day to last from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. "We are planning the day both for women in the com­ munity to learn about their college and about our services and also an interesting and entertaining way to spend a Saturday doing something different," Loomis said. The fee for the day includes lunch and a morning coffee break Women who would like to attend may sign up by telephoning the college at 455- 3700, ext. 237. So the day can be planned effectively, fees and luncheon reservations must be received by March 3.
