TllBV'I'E Uni UU? Trail- Yes, sometimes it did seem as if the counselors were riding in some fiend- ishly-fast posse to track us down at every turn. They called us in to talk about our grades. They wanted to know what kind of a job we were going into after we graduated, or just which college we planned to attend. They checked our credits to make sure we had enough and wouldn't be left out when all our friends got their diplomas: they greeted new students and made them feel at home. 'When' ever trouble was brewing, this posse could feel it a-comin' and did their best to straighten things out. Sometimes we'd get to thinking it over and it would dawn on us how right our counselors were and how lucky we were for them to be there. There were times when they made us just plain haDDY -like the times they found just the job we were looking for after school, or told us that we could try for a certain scholarship and had a good chance of winning, or that we were eligible for some sport when we thought we'd just be spectators this time, or a thousand and one things that we were more than glad to hear about. Real friends were our counselors. They worked hard and kept our interests always upper- most in their minds. We agree that this is one of the nicest posses we know.
