The guidance office is the place for students to find valuable career and college information. Getting around to see the colleges represented at College Night took determination and persistence. The good turnout and crowded conditions didn't stop David Paine and his mother from visiting over half of the schools taking part in the evenings activities. gf ' af ,,,fl?'

College Night at St. Petersburg Iunior College provided students a chance to meet and speak with several college representatives. 220 SENIORSfSo-St Planning the next step For anyone interested, there will be a representative from the University of Florida in the guidance office today to answer any questions . . This an- nouncement, and others similar to it, served to remind many seniors of the pressing matters at hand, The time had come for them to begin thinking about and planning their futures. One of the first major decisions seniors had to make was whether to pur- sue their education in a vocational school or in a junior college, college, or university. Those who chose to attend a college or university had to face yet another question, Which college should I attend? Thus began the periods of thorough researching of col- leges and universities which interested students, and which many knew nothing about. The research was accompanied by numerous visits to guidance counselors and possibly even visits to the college campuses in which they were interested. With such factors as course offerings, location, size, costs, and possibilities of scholarships or loans to consider, seniors planning a college education tried to find the schools which best suited their needs and educational goals. After the college and scholarship ap- plications were completed and the students had been accepted by a col- lege, seniors then had time to relax. Their future was under way.

Becky Turner knew, and she showed it! Her four years at Northeast reflected dedication, friendliness, and an outstanding outlook on life. Becky was involved in many ac- tivities, including a great deal of time spent on sports and Student Govern- ment. She earned honors in sports as All County catcher for softball and was the soccer team's most valuable player. She showed dedication to the school by serv- ing as freshman and junior senators and as senior class vice-president. Becky was also in charge of the Senior Breakfast Committee and served as treasurer for the Prom Committee. With all these activities behind her, she believes that they have shaped her into a well-rounded individual, and without them it would have been difficult for her to succeed in life. My most outstanding memory of Northeast can be summed up in one word: friends, said Becky. Bringing laughter to otherwise dull and serious occasions is a goal I try to accomplish daily. Her philosophy is, You don't have to be great in one thing but above average in everything.
