me , 1-gy, r-'U' 6 G. Kenneth Barr Audio Visual Director We have nine directors on our campus in charge of the many different divisions and departments involved in coordinating activities of a school the size of Tech. The Guidance Division gives placement and college en- trance tests and counsels with students about scholastic problems. The Audio-Visual Department maintains the public address and film projection systems furnished by the school. Our Athletic Department sponsors all the home and visiting sports. Many people fail to realize that Tech has on campus a free employment agency for students and alumni. This service is provided through the office of the Employment Coordinator. While the stu- dent is still in school, on-the-job training is made availa- ble by the Diversified Cooperative Education Program. Pupils who are not in ordinary learning classifications are entered in the Special Education Division. All of our buildings and campus are maintained by the Shops, Buildings and Grounds Department. The Program Produc- tion Department assists in producing all-school plays, as- semblies, and special entertainment. Its main contribution is the annual Sketchbook. Tech's school paper and the yearbook are the work of the Publications Division.

Row 2: Mrs. Barbara Dearing, Mrs. Louise McCormick, Sharon Parrett, Mrs. Dorothy Stout. Our counselors at Tech direct us toward goals in our personal and school lives. Sometimes the guidance is in our choosing of high school courses, sometimes it is in planning for adult careers. Or this help may come in the form of advice about taking a part-time job, stay- ing in school, or working out personality problems. What- ever the particular need for assistance, Tech students know that there is someone to turn to who is sincerely interested and ready to look for a solution. Testing is a part of guidance, Kuder tests, reading tests, college aptitude and placement tests are only a few of those administered by trained guidance counselors. Mrs. Martha Turpin, Tech's dean of girls, and the girls' counselors are headquartered in the Student Center in the Main, while the boys' dean, Donald Daily, and the boys' counselors have their office in the Arsenal. The guidance counselors are based in the opposite wing on the first floor of the old Arsenal. DEAN OF 5oy5-D,m,ld Daily DEAN OF GIRLS-Mrs. Martha Turpin 9:-WV ' lvl' CF. ,YI 9 I r I 7
