Mrs . Cecilia Price Director pt. Meeting Student Needs GUIDANCE SERVICES People who really care and who take a personal interest in the students are found in the Guidance Services office at Henderson County Junior College. Mrs. Cecilia Price, Director, and Jerry Mayfield, Vocational Counselor, work hand in hand with the counselors in Special Services to provide students with the best possible guidance service. The Guidance Services staff provides programs that support the people involved in the total programs on the main campus and in the centers. A cooperative effort is made to meet each student as an indi- vidual where he is provided for him what is needed. The staff believes that social development in extra-class activities, a sense of belonging to and identification with HCJC, achieve- ment of self-understanding, development of individuality and understanding of responsibility, and preparation for satisfying post-HCJC experiences are very much a part of a student's total education and increase his ability to achieve success in his cho- sen educational program . The Guidance staff works closely with the students to provide them with personal-social counseling: academic-vocational advisementg coordination of faculty-advisementg peer-counsel- Jerry Mayfield ing and tutoring: referral and health services, new student orien- tation and testingg job placement and transfer placementg financial aid and scholarship information, and registration con- ferences for students in academic transfer and technical-voca- tional programs. They also do student follow-up and research, and recruiting and high school visitation. Guidance, direction, and leadership are qualities that make the staff in this office one of the most valuable at HCJC. I 9 0 O , 1 Mrs. Barbara Loper Technical-Vocational Counselor Secretary
