This type of movement could lead to brain damage that is similar to that of shaken baby syndrome. Other forms of unintentional child abuse include leaving a child unattended in a car, especially during the warm summer months. Young says on a day with temperatures as mild as 70 degrees Fahrenheit, the temperature in the car may rise to more than 100 F, eventually becoming extremely dangerous to the well-being of the unattended child.
School psychologists are part of the solution.
The Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction has indicated that there is a critical need for additional school psychologists in the state of Washington. WSU Spokane and Eastern Washington are collaborating to offer a post-graduate school psychologist certification program. WSU's Hotel and Restaurant Administration is one of the most established hospitality programs in the nation, and the only one in the Northwest. With two distinguished professors, an associate business dean, and some of the most published hospitality teachers and researchers in the world on its faculty, the HRA program offers a four-year degree from an accredited business college and enjoys a 95 percent placement rate for new graduates. The 350 HRA students at WSU must serve 1,000 internship hours in hospitality, can study at an affiliate in Brig, Switzerland, and can join any of four dynamic clubs in their major.
