Drafting offers careers Did you ever consider how the multitude of products that are available which make our lives a little easier and more comforta- ble came about? Practically all products and buildings began as an idea in some- one's mind. These ideas were then devel- oped on paper by draftsmen using a lan- guage of lines, views, and notes to fully describe the originator's idea. Finally other workmen possessing many different tal- ents, using the information on the drawing, produced a product or building which ben- efits the user. Drafting is one of the vocational areas available to students at Tech. Following a brief exposure to drafting in the Introduc- tion to Industry course, students are encouraged to continue with Related Drafting I and II, which is a 2 semester I period V2 credit course. Advanced classes in Architectural and Machine Drafting are available for students who display some talent for this type work in the beginning courses. Several of Tech's advanced drafting stu- dents brought favorable recognition to the school and the Drafting Department dur- ing the spring semester 1975, by placing in competition sponsored by organizations concerned with drafting and the prepara- tion of future draftsmen. Jerry Tennant won honorable mention in Architectural Competition sponsored by the Indianapolis Chapter of the American Institute of Archi- tects. In the Machine Drafting Competition sponsored by the IPS Design and Drafting Advisory Committee, Kevin Simonton won first place in Class A Competition, and Michael Beach won first place in the Class B Competition. Kevin also won third place in Machine Drafting in the state-wide Vocational Industrial Clubs of America Competition in which Tech was host school. One of the primary goals of the Tech Drafting Department staff is to help pre- pare students who have an interest and some talent in drafting for a cafeer which will be challenging and financially reward- ing.
