,f.irr AVIATION DEPARTMENT Axiation lla biconic a ci imporiant part ol the ( uiriciihiin on our campus. Much ot the popularity and success of the aviation cleparinient is due to the er fine instructor— r. Miller Lanier— whose un- ceasing efforts and cooperation have made the aviation courses valuable and sought after by so many of the students. Through the extensi e training which the students receive, they arc able to obtain their private, commercial, and instructor ' s ratings, . long with the actual flying experience, students are able to obtain technical knowledge in na igation, radio, meterology, and many other phases of aviation. This department has recently moved to its modern new honre on the Lebanon Road. INFIRMARY The Infirmary provides us with excellent medical care. It has worked oveiiimc (his past year with the fill epidemic in fidl swing. Wluii students pay their registration fees, a certain amount is set aside for any medical care, whether it be shots of penicillin, a bottle of cough syrup, the wonder cold pills, or a confined period of illness.

Its importance can never be over-emphasized. The training received here under the very capable and alert faculty is of more practical benefit to the MTSC student than any other experience during the four year span in attain- ing a degree. Here is a real opportunity for students to put to use, in typical situations, the knowledge they have received. Many of the problems the practice teacher faces will be the same he will come up against when he has a teaching position of his own. These problems can be handled much easier and more accurately because of this practical experience here. The Training .School maintains very high educational standards and in- sjjires us as future teachers to higher ideals and goals. Our success here is a glimpse at the future vhcn ive vill be completely on our own initiative. Students are afforded the opportunity to become ;k- t|iiainted vith and use tlie materials and ecpiipmeut in order to achie e the best results from their work. Students have conferences with their respective super- vising teachers to clear up many of their problems and coordinate their work.

EXTENSION SERVICE The Division of Field .Services was originated to serve more adec[iiately the needs of our graduates and prolessional people in the area. One ol the (liiel luiu lions ol this (li ision is to assist superiniemlenis and su|)ei isors in pr() iding an in-service training program through extension classes. . second finution of iliis di ision is to keep in touch with the persoiuiel needs of employers, both in educational areas and in iiulusirial situations. This need is passed on lo the seniors and the alumni who are seeking employment. Thus, placement becomes the responsibility of the Division of Field .Services. Any time there is contact with any individual or groups off ihe campus, public lelations are in ol ed. It is the responsibility ol this division to foster de- sirable public relalions with individuals and groups within our area. These are not only allowed to come to the campus for meetings, but are cordially en- couraged to do so. Any requests for scr ices such as speak- ers, contest judges, or programs, conte to this office, and an effort is made to pro- vide such services as are recpiested. Fhis division accepts applications for student em- ployment and refer applicants to persons desiring student assistants. Finally, this division conducts a program of recruit- ment by visiting high school students, by inviting and supervising groups of ihem to visit our campus, and by distiihuting literaiurc and inlonnation ai)out the college. . s seen aljove, the responsibilities of this office are varied, as ihey include the offering of extension classes, the placement of graduates and alumni, public rela- tions, siitdent employment, and recruitment.
