The main goal for ...V n49 ' A junior Roxanne Kamalu works on a project for DECA. COE last year was for each member to raise enough money to buy a ticket, for themselves and their COE employer, for the Student Union Ball. The purpose of the ball was to thank employers for the job they had provided for the students. Officers for COE last year were: President Michelle DesRosier, Vice President Helen Baumann, Secretary Sally Carillo, and Treasurer Debby Arthur. When asked why she joined COE Michelle stated, I really wanted to get a job, and I was interested in business. She would recommend COE to students, because it offered a job that paid well and gave two elective credits. It also of- fered many types of opportunities for different kinds of people. Michelle stated, What I got out of COE was on- the-job experience, school credit, learn- ing how to work with people, and the experience and knowledge of working in a business office. COE provided jobs for its members who normally would not have the op- portunity to get jobs. The members at- tended school in the morning, and worked in an office in the afternoon. To join COE there were two re- quirements. First, you needed a recom- mendation from at least two business teachers and each student had to have taken at least two business classes. Goals for the group last year were to keep their jobs, and be promoted. The students felt COE was a great class.

Leadership Trades evelop Q eadership development, civic consciousness, social in- telligence, and vocal understan- ding were some of the functions of the Distribution Education Clubs of America, otherwise known as DECA, stated Advisor Mary Barnhart. In order to join DECA, a student had to be enrolled in a marketing or merchandis- ing class. Barnhart continued, Awareness of the needs of the com- munity is a definite way that DECA helps the students. Last year there were about seventy students involved in DECA. DECA students raised money by participating in various fund raisers so they could pay for registration fees for the Southern State and National Conferences. They participated in many outside activities some of which were: The jerry Lewis Telethon, March of Dimes Haunted House, and a Bowl-A-Thon. DECA also delivered candy to children in hospitals. Barnhart said, They got an awareness of the people around us by participating in these activities. When asked what DECA did for her, Maria Leon stated, It helps me learn more about the marketing business and what it takes to sell a product. joining DECA was highly recom- mended by Margo Martinez, she stated, If a student really doesn't know what he or she is going to do in the future, DECA will give them an idea of what they might like to do. Students' hoped to join the class next year because it was so rewarding. Margo also stated, DECA helps the students in placing their priorities in the right place and thinking about their future in reference to what career they want. It also gives us an idea about the outside community. notes before class. DECA speaker.
