STUDENT QUIZ Some Praise, ms QUESTION: Do you think high sehool guidance programs are adequate? A A LILLEY, 17 Senior, Chichesler Yes, in most high schools the guidance program is more than adequate for the'students' needs. The guidance counselor is specifically trained to help a student select his vocation according lo his interests and the ability he has shown on various tests. ROBERT GABRIEL, 17 Senior, Media No, I think that there should be more than just two guidance counselors for a high school. Every student has his problems and tl(6 counselors are constantly attending to these students. It Is really a problem for the counselors and they should be given help to reach every stu dent.

LINDA- REGETTO, 18 Senior, Eddystone Yes, the guidance programs are adequate enough so that when you go into the business world you are guided by your counselor in whatever field you're prepared for. Also, the guidance counselor can help you decide your future. JEANNE FRAME, 16 Senior, Sun Valley No, I think they should supply you with more information on colleges and jobs. I believe they should give more choice instead of one or two colleges or Jobs so you may pick the one best suited for you and your future aims. J.

KALBACH, 17 Senior, Notre Dame For the most part high school guidance programs are adequate. However, I feel that there is a lack of counselors who are specifically trained in this field. This training Is necessary to understand the problems of the in- 1 dividual students and to help achieve their proper- vocations. W. GREENHOUSE, Senior, Chester Yes, in most cases guidance programs are very effective.

However, their effectiveness depends on the quality of the counselors and the counselors ability to understand and help a student. The effectiveness of the guidance programs also depends on how a counselor, makes a student feel, whether or not he trusts his counselor. ROSE MC LAREN, 17 Senior, Ridky Park I feel most guidance programs are only generally effective. An adequate program must be the guidance of -a, counselor with a smaller number of students. Too many pupils are placed under the direction of a counselor who knows little about their individual abilities or personalities which may not become evident from test scores If more personal help were given I feel our guidance programs would be more effective.

RICK CLARKSON, Junior, Nether Providence Yes, I higV school guidance programs are, for the most part; more than In our school the counselors do an efficient job of advising the stu- de nts and'in aiding post-gradu- ate pursuits. However, an appropriate number of well-trained counselors are a necessity for all high schools. CHI CH ESTER B. ALDINGER, 17 Senior, Clifton Heights The guidance programs In most schools today 'are sutUcl- ent in helping students with problems they face in the classroom and out. To get the students to talk with their guidance counselors seems to be a problem, but once this is overcome the students finds that there are well trained people waiting to help him.
