LARGE ENROLLMENT CHALLENGED ADMINISTRATORS Faced with the problem of a huge enrollment, Mr. Kinney principal of Tech, had the challenging responsibility of running Tech efficiently. As a public school administrator his grestest problem was how to reflect and represent the needs of society in the school system. Concerned with the lack of communication be- tween students and the administration, Mr. Kinney instituted a series of open forums. At these after school sessions, he and interested students aired griev- ances and discussed problems of Tech. He termed these forums as meaningful student dialogues. As Assistant Principal, Nlr. Sell was responsible for a number of duties in our school system. l-le was the Director of Secondary Summer Schools, which in- cluded Tech and both junior high schools. He also developed Tech's master schedule so that the grestest number of students could take the courses of their choice without conflict.
