I n Touch Office ed heads toward future Business Profe ssionals ot America is the new name that will be replacing Office Educa- tion Association, said Sharon Solanik, sponsor of B.P.A. and teacher of Word Processing. The new image was unveiled at the club ' s convention and contest in Arlington during March 10-12. Business Professionals of America ' s main goals were to teach members leadership, or- ganization, interest in the Amer- ican business systems, and com- petency in office occupations. B.P.A. helped students learn to organize their time to fit in with their studies, work, and extra- curricular activities without one hurting the other, said Solanik. Careers in business or computers were what most club members were aiming for. Most of my students go on to college after their four years, around 75 to 80 percent go into computer related fields, said Solanik. Club members took home awards in both regional and state contests. I was very proud of the members who participated in the competitions, seniors Julie Gardner, Michelle Leavell, Pat- rick O ' Hara, and Craig Baker went on to the state level, said Solanik. Craig Baker placed first at state in the Administrative Assistant I category and Julie Gardner took second place at state and fourth at the national level in the Administrative As- sistant II contest. The national competition was held in Lex- ington, Kentucky on April 30, 1988. This year ' s club was very successful, said Solanik.

T ouch of domesticity Students tackle threads, spreads, and Keds Threads, spreads and Keds provided the focus for three campus organizations. Members of the Fashion Design, Food Production, and Child Care Clubs were involved in designing and producing clothing, plan- ning and preparing meals, and caring for and teaching young children. Moving into the new facilities proved to be quite a task tor members and sponsors, but the transition from old to new was a smooth one. New rooms and updated equipment enabled club members to work more eas- ily to accomplish goals. Food Service members held a contest to determine the name of the local campus restaurant. The Ramblin ' Inn became the new hot spot for teachers and hungry ' students in search of tasty treats. A delectable daily lunch special was served. I really enjoyed working at the Ramblin ' Inn, it taught me a lot, said senior John Whamback. Article: Patrick OHara Photos: Submitted Behind the scenes work diligendy.
