k PAGE 2 Advice Is Here, Ready (The following is a statement of policy from the University Coun seling Service, Dr. Ronald B. Sim- ono, Director.) The primary function of the Counseling Service is to offer professional psychological assis tance to students on a voluntary basis. Counseling helps students to deal effectively with such problems as lack of specific vocational ob jectives, inability to make a choice of major areas of study, ineffective study skills and atti tudes, difficulty in adjusting to the University environment, inade quate interpersonal relationships, family problems, feelings of de pression, as well as other specific problems of a personal nature. The staff consists of persons whose trainingand experience have emphasized counseling or clinical psychology, testing and evaluation, school counseling and guidance, and training and experience in re lated areas. The major function of a counselor is to contribute his professional training and experi ence in helping the incBvidual work out his own problems in ways that will be satisfying to him. Professional staff are located in physical surroundings in which the counseling interviews can be conducted in privacy, without in terruptions or distractions. As members of a professional group, counseling psychologists and coun selors are bound by a code of ethical principles and responsibi lities. These include confiden tiality of the counseling interview, primary responsibility toward the individual client, and responsibi lity to the University. The Coun seling Service will release infor mation only to those people de signated in writing by the individual. Such testing as measures of achievement, ability, interest, and personality are given to individuals who request them through a staff member of the University Coun seling Service. The philosophy of the Counseling Service is that psychological tests may be helpful in counseling. They will be useful only when the test results are combined with other forms of in formation about the individual. The Counseling Service is lo cated in the Administration Build ing. The University extension is 231. The staff at present consists of: Ronald B. Simono, Ph. D., Director; and Gary \V. Peterson, M. A., Counselor. It would be helpful to the coun seling staff if the individual would phone or appear in person for his, or her, own appointment in advance. However, this is cer tainly not mandatory. An indivi dual is more welcome to drop in at any time. Individuals coming to the Counseling Service should report to Room 116 upon arrival at tile Administration Building. An occupational - educational ISew Faculty Members (Continued from page 1) information library is maintained by the Counseling Service in Room 108 of the Administration Building for use by all members of the University community. Published material on a wide variety of oc cupations is available. Current catalogues for colleges and univer sities are on file.

Senior Classical League was formed in New Mexico in 1960 by former members of the Junior Classical League who, because of their interest in the classics and their enjoyment of JCL wished to remain in contact with JCL. If you are unfamiliar with JCL, read on. Junior Classical League is the Latin club of many high schools. Their creed says; We, the members of the Junior Classical League, convenant to hand on the torch of classical civilization in the modern world. We believe an acquaintance with the civilization of Greece and Rome will help us understand and ap prise this world of today, which is indebted to the ancient civi lization with its government and laws, literature, language, and arts. JCL is the second largest youth group in the United States and the largest organization of its kind in the world. A requirement for mem bership is that one take Latin or Greek in high school. The requirements for member ship in SCL are that a high school graduate have an interest in the classics. The purpose of SCL is to help JCL and promote the clas sics on the college level. Many students have asked, “Why do we have a Senior Classical Lea gue on campus when Latin isn’t even taught?’’ The answer to this questirai is quite simple. . . It is because Latin is not taught on this campus that we have a Senior Classical League here. Only through SCL can one be associa ted with a national organization devoted to the classics. Last year our SCL sponsored a lecture series. Many popular speakers spoke on subjects of their own choozing. Some of the lec tures, therefore, were not related to the classics. In May we spon sored a Roman Banquet for all UNC-C students. Students, 11) I'l.LISON Cl,Ain Mathematics; Lucio Artiago, Assistant Professor of Mathema tics; R. V.

The university book store reports a shortage of texts for about thirty courses this semester. Students affected by this shortage may have to wait from tour to six weeks to fuy their books in some cases, according to book store manager Mitch Borden. The shortage is caused mainly by late orders and orders too few in estimated number of tests need ed submitted by faculty members to the book store, said Borden. The bookstore deadline for text orders in July 1. The store re ceived between 12 and 15 late order for this semester “Only one department got its orders in before the deadline,’’ Borden said. When the orders came in, they were based the professors’ past experience of anticipated class enrollment. Enrollment for the entire university is higher by about 3.000 than generally expected this fall and the total number of stu dents here is expected to top the 2.000 mark. As a consequence, the bookstore is short of texts for nearly all of the more popular courses. There are more studentsinpre- voiusly less popular courses this tall, as well. “After all, people, would have thought there would be 30 students in the Russian History course,’’ Dr. Dan Morrill explain ed the shortage of texts in his class. Manager Borden said there is no way to accurately predict the time it will take to receive books ordered late. “Some companies respond quickly while others take up to six weeks,’’ he said. a meeting.
