This enabled counselors to spend less time with routine activities. A guidance center was set up in the basement. Basically, it handled student testing, scholarships, registration, sched- ule changes and all career and voca- tional information. With the help of Mr. Milner and his T.V. productions class, the use of closed circuit television provided the counselors with an excellent aid in executing their program. Mr. Quenelle ordered a quantity of essential production equip- ment for this purpose. Counselors who had taught courses other years discontinued their teaching and concentrated totally on counseling. In this way they were able to give better assistance to students. Along with the large number of stu- dents came many busy hours, but the counselors managed to be available whenever necessary.
