Leland Bird HWJ, -sw-Q--vi? Russell Magleby We acquaint eligible students with schol- arships, help them fill out the forms, and remind them to mail their completed papers promptly, were the comments of the coun- selors - Ann Pehrson, Easton Moffit, Leah Merrell, and Russell Magleby. To inform the students of all scholarships available, they published a Bulletin of Scholarship Informa- tion. Their most enjoyable task was prepar- ing seniors for college and a well-rounded life after high school. In addition to arranging class schedules and visiting junior high schools to orient next year's sophomores, the coun- selors blocked out an extensive testing pro- gram. After administering the National Edu- cational Development, the Preliminary Scho- lastic Aptitude, and the National Merit Schol- arship Tests, they carefully interpreted results for students, and, when desired, gave personal interviews. Sooner or later, the sen- ior, the junior, the sophomore, the gifted, the handicapped student - all sought the advice of a counselor, the coordinator of the school.
