Two Join Counseling Staff Last fall, BHS had two new coun- selors join its counseling staff. Their names were Pat Dannen and Dick Mace. Mr. Mace hailed from High- land Park Junior High and Mrs. Dan- nen from John Day, Oregon. Her position at BHS was not Pat Dannen's first job as a counselor. She counseled, for seventeen of her twen- ty-three year teaching career, in the small town of John Day. She said she liked BHS because of the wide range of programs offered to the student body and because everyone was so nice and friendly! In her old school she was the only counselor with three- hundred students to work with. She also had the unofficial title of vice principal. This meant many hours of extra work for her. Mrs. Dannen stat- ed that she enjoyed working with BHS students and particularly en- joyed counseling the minority pupils. Before coming to BHS, Dick Mace counseled for nine years at Highland Park Junior High. One aspect he liked about his new job was that he knew so many of the students from his years at Highland Park. Mr. Mace found working with high school students' stimulating. He enjoyed spending time counseling with them as they prepared for graduation and their fu- tures. When asked what he thought of the population at BHS, Mr. Mace re- plied, The staff and students are very outgoing and friendly. Mr. Mace also said that he thought the programs offered were excellent. He felt that his students today were high- ly motivated for college, partially be- cause of the social atmosphere. As a final comment, Mr. Mace said, I am really glad to be part of Beaverton High because of the super people and programs here. Other than these additions, the counseling staff remained the same. The staff included Jim Clutts, Mary Poulsen, O.N. Alberty, Dian Poujade and Ed Ramsdall. 246 Counselors

Library! Media Y --. .fi '- flf.1.i:i-f 248 LibraryfAV New, faster system The libraryfmedia center found a way to a faster, more accurate system. As of the end of the year 83-84, over- due books were checked on an Apple computer. Mr. Doriss, media special- ist, felt that the list was easier to read and print out. The computer also did the budget and inventory. The com- puters were able to handle a lot of in- formation. It saved money, time, and made jobs quicker and easier. Mr. Doriss set the program up himself. Deanna Draper, librarian, felt that as far as changes went this year was a year of phenomenal nothingnessf' Draper found it interesting that the books students read from year to year change just as a fad changes. Draper added that some books have stayed constant in the main point of interest, such as horror, science fiction, ro- mance, and mushroom identification books. The latest interest was in com- puter books, of which there was a large variety. One advantage of the BHS library was that students didn't have to limit themselves to the school facilities. Beaverton High School could borrow from any library in the US. 'Nv- it at 5
