Young children need special care and attention as they develop from infancy. They need guidance, teaching, and positive examples to become healthy teens and eventually adults. If you have a special spot in your heart for children, then consider an early childhood and family studies degree. You’ll learn how to care for their health, education, and welfare. You’ll learn responsibility for their social, physical, and intellectual development. Day cares are a common employer, where routine activities such as managing the eating, sleeping, health care, and recreational needs of children are the main day-to-day tasks. Preschool teachers provide additional learning experiences. A director supervises programs, including supplies and equipment, balancing the budget, and working with parents. With an early childhood and family studies degree from Wayne State, you’ll be prepared for a variety of these situations and be ready for many different careers in caring for young children.

Foods and Nutrition Minor
at Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska
Different people have different nutritional needs. Sometimes, however, people are not informed on the healthiest ways to fuel themselves. Diet plays a significant role in health maintenance and disease prevention. The study and application of this field is influenced by a growing and aging population, increased public interest in nutrition, and the food industry’s desire to meet public demand for a wider variety of nutritious products. A foods and nutrition minor can complement many other programs of study. You might connect medicine, healthcare, athletic training, or exercise science to a background in nutrition to better understand the role of food as it relates to human performance and body function. Perhaps a career in health promotion or public education is more to your liking, where you help others make decisions regarding appropriate nutrition and health. Whatever path you choose, a foods and nutrition minor will serve you well in the workforce and help you protect your own health.
Required Courses: 21 hours
A minor must include a minimum of 12 hours unduplicated by your major(s) and minor(s). Complete at least 50% of the total hours for the minor at the 300-400 level.

Findias or Finias Uiscias or Uscias Sword (claideb/claiomh solais) which belonged to Núada
No one ever escaped from it once it was drawn from its sheath, and no one could resist it. The sword is also described in the Tain legend as "Nuadu's Cainnel"—a glowing bright torch.[5]
While most pre-wedding parties divide by gender, some don't. The Terramagne-American term is "batch party." A leading reason for its popularity there is that partying in couples somewhat reduces the tendency toward wildness. Another is that people of all sex/genders can participate.
One bouncer or security guard per 100 guests is a standard count. However, the more boisterous an event is, the more security needed. Alcohol definitely increases the need. A venue where you can't see everything at once means you need someone in each section. A bar needs at least 2 bouncers: one at the door and one inside. Blues Moon has extra because this is a big party with lots of drunk people. Ronalda is a new type of bouncer, with her party monitor training. Shiv is more of a supervisor than a hands-on bouncer; Tolli and Simon are there because this is his first time as Head of Security for an event.
Various places have perks for designated drivers, and there's even an app for them. T-America is much more enthusiastic about this, and consequently, has little trouble convincing people to volunteer for the role and stick to it.

People are attempting to breed muscadines for wider appeal by removing all the things that make them muscadines (thick skin, seeds, intense sweetness) and will certainly destroy their epic disease resistance. If you don't want to eat muscadines, buy some other grape, don't ruin these.
