pus where you might be able to find
out is the extensive library of
occupational inf or motion main
tained by the Division of Coun
seling.
Directed by Dr. George R. Hud
son, associate professor of educa
1—
Ilion, the library contains informa
tion not only about conventional
occupations but also about many
lout-of-the-way fields.
But few students find their
way to the library in 401 Old
Main to consult its files, accord
ing to Hudson and his assistant,
Mrs. Maureen Moon,
The information covers job de
scriptions, training ..equirements,
future prospects an;`, current sal
ary ranges for vocations from an
able seaman to a zoologist—about
1000 occupations in all.
The information has been ac
cumulated since the founding of
the Student Advisory Service
shortly after World War II and,
according to Hudson, has cost the
University $lO,OOO.
The sources for obtaining this
wealth of information include
government bureaus and depart
ments, commercial publishers and
professional and trade associa
tions.
Hudson said that his office
works in conjunction with the
collelos of the University and
has suggested, in some in
stances, that faculty memberd
write pamphlets on occupations
not sufficiently covered by oth
er sources.
Hudson points out to students
visiting the libiary many useful
books to aid them in choosing a
vocation. There are volumes on
professional occupations, indus
trial and government jobs, mili
tary careers, work in foreign
countries and many others.
The library also includes' data
on junior colleges, technical and
business schools, other universi
ties and graduate schools.
