Data Processing OHEFS A bility Placement lo A I! Through its modern system and the work of its directors, Fr. Casimir Pazera O.S.A,, Fr. Edward Novak O.S.A., and Bro. joseph USA., the data processing department has continued to expand its service to the school, This year stu- dents have been individually scheduled, allowing each stu- dent to take various combinations of subjects and giving each a chance to meet more people in class. Furthermore, by ability placement. the student is given a chance to com- pete with students of his own ability in every subject. Beside serving an integral part of the administration, Data Processing is also a subject in the school curriculum. The course is taught by Fr, Edward Novak OSA. All stu- dents wishiiig to take the course are required to submit themselves to an aptitude test published by l.B.M, This test measures the ability ofthe students to succeed in the field. The course is designed to provide a basic knowledge of the field, which knowledge gives students considering con- i 3 S515 i t 12 'kk iw Sffiix fi' TS tinuation in the field the ability to make a more enlightened choice of a future. Knowledge obtained in the course also proves quite useful for those students entering college after graduation, especially those students majoring in a math or science oriented field. In the course. the students are instructed in the function and operation of such l.B.Nl. machines as the keypunch sorter, reproducer, collator, and accounting machine. An introduction into the theory and programming of comput- ers is also presented. The functions of some of the centerjs machines are: key- punch, punching information into patterns of holes in a cardg sorter, reading the holes in the cards and arranging them according to the information, collator, merging and selecting pre-arranged deck of cardsg and accounting ma- chine, reading the punch in the cards and putting pre-se- lected information on the sheet.
