Young Student Center plays an important part on the Tech campus. Mrs. Shirley Goines, Director of Financial Aid, estimated that fifty percent of the stu- dents at Tech were receiving some kind of financial aid. When asked if most students could get aid, Mrs. Goines said, Most get help when they need it. If they aren ' t able to get one type of loan they could be eligible for some other type of loan. Almost anyone is qualified for some kind of help. This help can come in the form of student aid, student loans, guaranteed loans, athletic scholar- ships, state grants and state scholarships. In the undergraduate heading, a student can get financial aid on the federal level, the state level, institutional level, and from vari- ous other sources. These all include grants and scholarships, loans, and employment, at Tech. All students are encouraged to stop by the financial aid office where a staff of helpful and friendly people will give pri- vate financial counseling on budgeting your money, give breakdowns of the costs per semester and explain all of the various forms and brochures available to the stu- dent. 28 Student life

These cooks go by a basic company recipe book that is also used by other cafeterias under American Restaurant Asso- ciation. Students who wish to contribute feasible recipes are encouraged to do so as long as the volume required is considered.
