Plan Your Career November 10
by Molly McQw
What’s big and square and is
filled with employees from
over 50 working fields? Why,
It’s Weatherspoon Gym on
Career Day, of course.
Because of tM great
success of Meredith's first
Career Day held last spring,
the event will be repeated
again this year on NovemlDer
10.
This year's Career Day
theme is selecting a field that
you love and making it
marketable.
Mrs. Mutschler from the
Career Services office Is very
much Interested in helping
students realize the
Importance of course
compliments such as a
foreign language to business,
or computer science to music,
etc.
Finding extracurricular
areas such as these in
combination with a ma{or can
be a greet asset to any future
working woman.
Finding the right course
compllmmts for any ma^or
may be a diffksuit ta^
hov«ver, on Career Day there
wrtli be visitors from a variety
of work areas to help
interested girls with this.
These guests will not only
provide cunlculum tips, but
will also be able to answer
other questions and provkle
career and vocation
counseling and informatlort.
Although this may sound
like an event for college
juniors and seniors, it is
probebly even more valuable
to freshmen and sophomores.
In fact, 81 of the 92 freshmen
and sophomorss surveyed
after Career Day last year
found the event beneficial in
selecting a major and
planning for a future career.
All Meredith students, no
matter what class, are highly
encouraged to participate in
Career Day. This event can

togive blood, 130 were able to
dor«te. There were 39 first
