ecretaries Perform Many Duties Mrs. Mary Riordan assists Mrs. Wanda Lambert in recording grades. ' ' Qi . E savjl.f.U WUI nn In addition to Registrar Mrs. Dorothy Kramer, the office staff consists of Mrs. Phyllis Peterson, Mrs. Mary Riordan, Mrs. Wanda Lambert, and Mrs. Jean Carlson. During the first semester, Mrs. Janette Ketelsen and Mrs. Joanna Greenwood were employed. Mrs. Phyllis Peterson administers the school insur- ance program at MCC, as well as helping with tran- scripts. Typing office records is another duty she has performed during her four years at MCC. Secretary to Mr. L. Everett Belote, Mrs. Mary Riordan, who also helps with typing, began her work in the college office in November. In addition to her secretarial duties Mrs. Riordan duplicates examinations for teachers. Mrs. Wanda Lambert succeeded Mrs. Janette Ketel- sen as the registrars assistant. When the end of the semester arrives and grades must be recorded, Mrs. Lambert takes this responsibility. She also handles class cards. Replacing Mrs. Joanna Greenwood in the bookroom during the second semester is Mrs. Jean Carlson. Head- Mrs. Phyllis Peterson agrees with Mrs. Jean Carl- son that the insurance forms are in order. ffm' ing Mrs. Carlson's duties are ordering books, mailing out class schedules, and taking charge of bookkeeping and banking for the college. The dispensing of information is one of the pri- mary services of the office staff. Vendors of the corn- modity are Mrs. Phyllis Peterson, who answers queries by telephone, and Mrs. Mary Riordan at the informa- tion desk. What type of questions are asked? Prospec- tive students want to know which courses are offered, the entry requirements for these courses, and their col- lege credit hours. Current students call to find out whether a certain class will be held, or whether an instructor has revealed the semesters grades. These are but a few of the many inquiries which face the secretaries each day. Aiding Arrowhead Ranch was the office staffs ma- jor Christmas time project. Each secretary at MCC adopted a child from the ranch for one evening. This evening was spent at a Christmas party, where each boy was presented a gift by his temporary parent.
