AN EYE ON OUR FUTURE Dr. George A. Favareau Dr. Eavareau, the head of the john jay Guidance De- partment, spends a great deal of time discussing colleges and careers with the members of the junior and senior classes. Dedicated to the futures of all john jay students, he under- standingly reminds us to file our applications for College Board Examinations, scholarships, and college admissions. He supervises the examination of prospective scholar- ship holders and prepares the literature necessary to keep us up to date on careers and college conditions. Furthermore, Dr. Favareau cooperates with the administration and faculty in drawing up schedules. For the past few years he has assisted BOCES in holding the College Conference at john jay.
