From the beginning it has been the policy of the Place- ments Office to render the greatest amount of service it can to the public schools of Illinois. It does this by recom- mending the best candidates for positions to be filled. Mr. W. G. Cisne is responsible for making these contacts with teachers and schools. His of- fice assistants are Catherine Gibbs and Peggy Boucher. The Practice Office, With Dr. Bruce W. Merwin super- vising and Shirley Allen as- sisting, consists of the follow- ing three branches: campus laboratory school, Brush train- ing school, and rural practice schools. Recently a new budget plan has been made for expansion of the department and its fa- cilities. This consists of 3231,- 638 set aside for site prepara- tion, 31,704,235 for construc- tion, S859,368 for a power plant, 3275, 637 for a service building, and 3'p819,005 set aside for mechanical and elec- trical service. CAMPUS OFFICES All official bulletins, an- nouncements, examinations, and other materials are print- ed by the Mimeograph Office. Lenore Zanini and Marie Res- tivo have been the operators of the machines this year. The activities of this office are -vital to the operation of the university.
