Up to Us, in Publications, and Through the NEA COREAN JACQUELIN CARTER 1734 -Nolan St. San Antonio, Texas Telephone: CA 6-474-4 Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education Mrs. Carter has taken time off from her family to complete her degree requirements in elementary education, and to prepare her- self for the San Antonio public school sys- tem. The mother of five lovely children, Corean has had much work and worry as- sociated with her college education. She says that one of the most difficult situations arose when all five had flu, and she had to leave them to the care of their grandmother, because semester exams were in full swing. Her efforts have been rewarded. With her hard-earned sheepskin in her possession, she can now devote her full time once again to being a mother. Her chief ambi- tion for each of her children is that each one will be a credit to his church and to his country. Helene Carter HELENE CARTER 929 N.

Armed with a knowledge of the Russian and French languages, Helene went to Germany to study German. She also knew English, and worked with the American Army of Occupation as an interpreter. There she met her future husband, and after their marriage, came to live in Texas. Students and faculty of l.W.C. are very happy that Helene chose this college to complete her degree require- ments, and to prepare herself to teach languages in the Texas secondary schools. Helene is also an accom- plished musician, and hopes to con- tinue her studies in that field also. Her love of America and Texas, and of l.W.C. in particular, are indeed very gratifying.
