The former home of Centenary ' s presidents TURNER ARTCENTER A welcome addition to campus The art students were excited to have their own building. The for- mer home of The Craft Alliance and Centenary College presidents, a gift of the late Sydney R. Turner, was a needed and appreciated addition to the campus. The renovated building included drawing and painting studios as well as a printmaking room, sculpture lab, darkroom, slide-lecture auditorium and slide library. There were also faculty offices, a faculty studio, stu- dent lounge, and gallery space.

There ' s a success story in CAREER PLANNING Lee Anne Turner, a new mem- ber of the staff, organized a career planning program for the students. The Community Foundation contrib- uted the money for a new office and furnishings and Mrs. Edna Earnest donated money for operating expenses and new equipment. In memory of Mrs. Earnest ' s parent ' s, Dean and Mrs. John Alexander Hardin, the office was dedicated on March 19th. Students received help in plan- ning a career by a series of inter- views, the Meyers-Brigg Test, and books available on career informa- tion. Many students helped test new soft-ware that assists people in rec- ognizing their individual interests and values in order to suggest kinds of jobs. After deciding on a career, stu- dents were instructed in resume writing, job interviewing, and job search skills by attending a series of workshops. It at least got me an interview, claimed Senior, Jen- nifer McCray. Students are also helped in finding job contacts throughout the United States, espe- cially in Texas and Louisiana.
