In May of this year, the Nebraska Vocational Technical School celebrated its twentieth anniversary. Never before in the history of the school has the future looked brighter. It is the conviction of those affiliated with the school that vocational technical education has been accepted as an in- tegral part of Nebraska's educational program. No longer will the school need to be placed in the unenviable under- the-hee1 position in education. Its merits have been justi- fied and its future is undoubtedly secure. On the following pages are pictures of current staff members, students, departmental functions and other activi- ties in which students participate.

Three department heads have been on the staff since the inception of the school. They are Cliffford Fieselman in Welding Technology, Joseph Armstrong in Auto Mechanics Technology and Walter Bennett in Metals Technol- ogy. Many others have spent ten or more years on the staff. J. R. Jewell served as Acting Director of the school from 1941 to 1945. In 1945, Lowell A. Welsh was appoint- ed as Director of the school and is still serving in that capacity.

Under his ad- ministration the school has accom- plished many things. A few of these are: the change in the school name in 1957 from Nebraska State Trade School to Nebraska Voca- tional Technical School , the ap- proval of federal aid in 1958 under the National Defense Education Act, 'the approval of building funds in 1957 under the state in- stitutional building fund levy and the dream of new facilities becom- ing a reality. -3-
