Paterson State College M A., Columbia University Guidance GUIDANCE The Guidance Department, under the direction of Miss Theodora Apostolacus, plays an important role in preparing each student for a productive and meaningful life while in school and after graduation. Once a year every student is given a private interview with his counselor. During the conference the student and his parents discuss plans for die future and steps that can be taken in preparation now. Assisting the student in obtaining a job or a scholarship is also an important function of this department. The college-bound student receives assistance in determining the best college for him and in filling out the many applications. In addition, all testing programs are under the direction of the guidance personnel. With the installation of a digital computer, data can be processed faster than was previously possible. The Guidance Department will now be able to devote even more time to the advancement of every student. Mr. West helps Kathleen Johnson in deciding future courses. 12
