Vocational Education It isn’t that we aren’t interested in English. It isn’t that we aren’t interested in history. It isn't that we aren’t interested in sports. It isn’t that we don’t want to have a well-rounded education. Some of us just begin earlier than others establishing a vocation. We want to learn the science and art of homemaking, agriculture, or industry. Our impetus stimulates us to action ... action resulting in specialization, action resulting in professional trade, action resulting in mechanical experience, action resulting in good grooming, action resulting in production. We become equipped for a greater reward .. . maybe college, maybe employment. DONALD HORNISH; U.A. Ohio Northern University, Manchester College FAR RIGHT: GLEN GALLA- WAY; B.S.

EVELYN RtJPP; B.S., M.Ed. Bowling Green Miss Rupp shows Mrs. Keim a student’s paper. Business Education We advance from general business to intensified business ... from hieroglyphics to bookkeeping ... from script to type ... from practice to common usage. We advance from —40 to +40. Some of us are interested in dictaphones: others, in electric typewriters. We learn of the buying and selling of commodities and services. We learn of office machinery. Some of us learn to work with stencils. All of us learn of patience and endurance. We are business-oriented. ELVA KEIM; A.B.

Social Studies RIGHT: JACK MILLER; B.A. Adrian College, Indiana University BELOW: MIKE WALKER; B.S. Bowl- ing Green State University, M.S. Indi- ana University BELOW RIGHT: LARRY FALOR; B.S. Defiance College, University of Tennessee It is memorization and more memorization. We hate facts, figures, and dates, but that doesn’t seem to matter. We cram and complain, and cram and complain, and block our minds. We are plagued by research papers, filmstrips, oral reports, and individual projects. But every now and then we stop to analyze. We are really discovering ourselves and our behavior patterns. We are being conditioned to a society ... a society of statesmen and phonies— We learn to distinguish between the two. We discuss theories of Freud, Pavlov, Hitler, Jefferson, and Roosevelt. We express our views on nationalism, riots, racism, and the ’68 elections. We are taught the rewards of living together as families, communities, races, and nations and also the punishments of disunity. We recognize our responsibilities. Most of us matriculate into society.
