Guidance Program Molds Future Careers ln an effort to provide more effective career and personal counseling, the guidance department has added to its regular roster of tests the Flanagan Aptitude Classification Tests for juniors and the Iowa Tests of Educa- tional Development for seniors. The number of career speakers has been increased in order to give a wider scope to the student's choice of college or career. The guid- ance library, open throughout the day, abounds with pamphlets, catalogues, and bul- letins gathered to present a picture of each state of life and every type of educational in- stitution for the student's benefit. Besides the guidance library, a special bulletin board has been designated on which is posted informa- tion pertinent to scholarships, careers, and service opportunities. Also, the guidance of- fice is always open to those with special prob- lems. Since association with others demands cour- tesy, Holy Cross students also take a course in manners, which ties in with guidance. ln these courtesy classes, everything from good study habits to dating data is discussed. Fresh- men and sophomore homerooms also conduct group guidance while juniors and seniors dis- cuss careers. Lucian Rominiecki consults with Father Russo on his college application as Johin Voight inspects a catalogue.
