Group counseling was rendered through such programs as the Kuder Vocational Interest Inventory, Marriage and Dating Forums, Career Conferences, and College Night. Informal personal conferences provided ndividualized counseling for R.H.S. stu- lents. Mr. Clinton Getz, college counselor, in- roduced the Dean of Admissions of Penn State University, Mr. C. O.

S. a variety of regular and creative English courses were designed and offered to enable all students to ac- quire effective writing, reading, speak- ing, and listening skills.
