MR. JOHN MORRIS, Count lor . . . MISS HARRIET PRUSSING, Coun telor. SONJA INGMUNDSON CROUCHES IN THE COUNSELING DEPARTMENT TO INVESTIGATE HER MANY COLLEGE CHOICES. GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT SECRETARY MRS. PIADSEN PREPARES AN ADMITTANCE PASS FOR JUNIOR BARB OWENS. TANTRUMS AND TEARS MET WITH MIRACLES THIS YEAR marked the transition from the class system to the alphabetical system in the counseling department. This innovation, which divided the students alphabetically rather than according to class as in the post, allowed the counselors to deal with members of the same family as well os to work with all three class levels. A second innovation was Mr. Nelson who became the seventh member of the counseling stoff. Fast and accurate IBM computers provided the teacher with a profile on each of his students, and reduced the scheduling time from approximately six weeks to an hour and a half. The computers made it possible to maintain a well organized record of each Hopkins graduate's schoolwork and post-graduate life. More college representatives than ever before came to acquaint Hopkins students with various colleges ond universities. The University of Minnesota experimented with a revolutionary approach using three rotating faculty speakers each equipped to handle o specific area of interest. Such conferences were aided by a constant influx of college bulletins ond scholarship blanks, along with vocational information and notices of local job opportunities. 19
