There are more than 25 secretaries on the campus of Broward junior College. All too often the students and perhaps even the faculty are not cognizant of the value of the secretaries dedicated work. To write about them all would fill a volume of Silver Sands, but to publicly recognize one is the staff way of thanking all. She is a very efficient secretary who has a deep empathy for studetns. She adds much to the image of the college and to the department through her pleasant nature, Winsome smile, friendly spirit, and cooperative attitude. Dr. lack Taylor has said this of his secretary whom everybody knows to be a truly dedicated friend to Broward junior College students. Beginning her ninth year at the college as the Dean of Student's secretary, MRS. LOUISE BUCK has proven to be an asset to the junior College by her interest in students and enthusiasm for her work. Mrs. Buck is the editor of the Campus Calendar which comes out each week in order to inform students of happenings at the college and job opportunities. Her fine contribution to the Junior College since its inception, along with her pleasant manner, makes any student feel at ease.
