Northern State College Driver Education Mechanical Drawing, I and n The faculty stimulated Student Guidance Counselor learning with films, filmstrips, overhead projectors, and the newly installed tele-lecture system which was the first in the surrounding area. This will be an aid in bringing ex- perts to us at a most convenient time. Another new innovation is the practice of seminar teaching. The teachers were very busy with classes, supervising study halls, correcting papers and preparing for the next day's work. In addition to these regular duties they volunteered their time and services chaperoning fan buses, selling tickets and help- ing with the various activities of the school. MR. THOMAS McCARTY, B.S.
