College or Career? Jeff. Jay and Jim look at college booklets. College or Career? That seems to be the question all of the seniors face at this time every year. Some of the seniors will go to college. They will receive training for the career that will suit them best. The rest of the seniors will choose a career over college. Whatever our seniors decide to do, we the Panther staff, wish them the very best of everything. Most of the seniors get help from Mr. Bon- ham in finding out about a certain college. Mr Mears. Lana, and Carmen review their transcripts to make sure they have all the courses they will need. SFCE-7 Cary Dunn of the Arkansas Army National Guard holds a Career Planning Workshop for all seniors.
