Mr Charles Franklin Free Furman University, B.A.: University of South Carolina, M.Ed.: Duke University: Washington and Lee Uni- iersity: N. C. State, Student Council adviser: Counselor. GUIDANCE . . . Through guidance services we strive to make school a worthwhile experience for every student at East. The program includes: ORIENTATION: Representatives from junior and senior classes present assembly programs and visit junior high schools and home- rooms to acquaint sophomores and other new students with what East has to offer. GROUP CUIDANCE: Clubs, committees, and homeroom activities provide information and participation for leadership training and social development, helping students recognize what they have to offer East. TEACHER-PARENT CONFERENCES: Parents, teachers, and counselors exchange ideas and information about a student's test results, study habits, personality traits, etc., in an effort to arrive at a better understanding of the individual. I INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING: Three trained counselors engage in individual interviews with students for purposes of schedule and course planning, discussion of college information, consideration of specific jobs and careers, assisting a student in self-assessment, and working toward a solution of his personal problems. The guidance activities are not confined to the counseling process but encompass the whole school program-classes, extracurricular ac- tivities, faculty, students, and administration, for it is the entire school community which shapes the individual-the degree of success he achieves here and that which he reaches in his life after East. .,l4:.w.a xref' Personally, I don't care what you think about Freud!
