CAREER DAY 'lihe Student Council was active. but had a problem agreeing on matters. The council discussed and argued over lit- tle things, such as the motto for the council. One word in the motto caused Z0 minutes of discussion. We make it happen and Make it happen were the two mottos haggled over. and the council never did resolve that question. The council threw the question of having Career Day open at early meetings, accord- ing to Parliainentarian Steve Mylius. Soon the council was faced with whether or not to schedule Career Day. The officers were not pushing the project. which made the council want to do it more. Steve said. Career Day. which has taken up to three months to plan. was accomplished in a month. The council received help from Mrs. jan lidwards' leadership class, which con- sisted mostly of student council members. Iiach student council member was assigned a speaker in a particular field. After n the student found a person from the local business world, he sent information about Career Day and friendly reminders to the speaker. Keynoting the two-session, previously three-session, clinic was jim Reeves, ex- Vocational Agriculture teacher. On April J over 60 professionals answered questions about career opportunities. Ifvaluations afterwards indicated that Career Day was a beneficial, educational experience for the students who attended, Steve said. 'lm glad we went ahead and had it. President Roger Watkins commented the next day. It was more rewarding than I thought it would be. Haltom City policeman points out that most forces require two years of college. A photographer explains the education needed to enter the field - namely, experience. Photogra- phy was one of the more popular classes. Pam Rodriquez hosts a secretary, another career several students signed up to find out about.
