COUNCIL PROPOSES
EMPLOYMENT AID
Advocates Placement Service,
Occupational Bureau at
Meeting Tuesday
The establishment of a vocational
guidance bureau and an employment
I placement service are recommenda
bons of Student Council to College
authorities and the Board of Trustees
by, action at Its meeting Tuesday
night.
Dissatisfaction with the present
haphazard system for advising stu
dents on vocations and the resultant
feeling on the part of undergraduates
that they have lost valuable time be
fore discovering their real interests
and abilities were responsible for
Council's consideration of the prob
lem and the final recommendation.
Prolide Two Functions
With a view to the building up in
the future of a regular staff of pro
fessional advisors, the Council report,
which was drawn up by Coleman Her
pel '32 and Charles P. Smith '32, pro
vides two functions for the bureau.
To interview and study prospective
students before their registration in
the College would be one of the la,
gest works of the bureau
Advising students already in Col
lege-who may be undecided or have
problems along vocational lines is the
second function planned for the bu
reau. The saving of much student
time and money as well as heightened
efficiency are the arguments ad
vanced for establishing such a system
at Penn state.
The increased difficillty of sccur
mg
positions for graduates from all
institutions has led to a demand on
the part of the student body for some
centralizing organization to co-ordin
ate the placement work now being
done in schools and departments, ac
cording to the Council report Not
advocating taking the work out of the
hands of the present position-finding
groups, the Council recommends only
some co-ordination and centralizing
agency for rendering the service more
effective
LOAN AUCTION POSTPONE!)

Only 19 Societiei Regarded
As Honoraries by College
Warnock Distinguishes Between Professional,
Scholastic Fraternities on Campus
lEEE=
Only nineteen societies are officially
recognized as honoraries on the Penn
State campus.
This apparently startling revelation
follows a definition of honor societies
made by Dean of Men Arthur R. War
nock when he stated that the College
describes them as organizations which
select members chiefly or solely on a
scholarship basis.
Those organizations commonly
known as honoraries which choose in
itiates on the hams of occupational in
terest and which conduct a program
throughout the year in accordance
with the occupation are classified as
professionals by the faculty commit
tee on student welfare, of which Dean
Warnock is secretary.
When charters are submitted to the
College, difficulty in classifying a so
ciety as either honorary or profes
sional is often experienced. How
ever, the matter is always settled by
a determination of the emphasis on
scholarship requirements for member
ship.
In the minority glom, by this duo
slflcation, only nineteen honorary so
cieties are members of the Honor So
ciety Council. This group, composed
chiefly of representatives of each hon
orary, has as its purprove the co-ordin
ation and unification of the activities
