But I could not get there on what I am taking, With my free sixth plus Work on the annual and on the MOOR. Why? Confusion at its height is the responsibility of the counselors' office. Transfers, dropped subjects, college problems, and office cards pile up on the desk of Mr. and Miss Counselor. Disgruntled students come running into their offices with all sorts of problems, ranging from the above mentioned to just plain Want- ing to visit with the students who sort the schedule cards during the first Week rush of the semester. But the job of counseling is not Without its gay points. The reflection of respect in the student's face on hearing the Wisdom of his counselor, the proud attitude of this Wise per- son When he recommends a student for a cer- tain college, and the daily requirements of said official-all churn together and add up to one student body opinion: Mr. and Miss Counselor-thanks.
