Wysong helps students find jobs

By LESLIE WHITMAN A new service is being offered at Wawasee High School and two other area high schools. It is called job placement service and is being provided through the vocational department. The man who has been in charge of getting this program going is Richard M. Wysong, formerly with the state board of vocational and technical education. Wysong, who was hired by the Wawasee Area Vocational Cooperative, of which Lakeland Corporation is the funding agent, October 1, feels this service is needed for both the students and employers. He says, "Really everything we do in school is prepare students for a vocation whether they go into college or not. I like to think of every teacher as a vocational teacher." Preparing students for a job and letting them know what companies and Jobs are available are the primary objectives of this new service. Cards were sent to all businesses in the cooperative area asking for general information about the business and jobs available. Wysong now has this information on file for present and future graduating seniors. He said, "That's the best way to get a job, by knowing somebody. If we can know these kids and their abilities, why not get them a job?" He added most schools only aid students wishing to go onto college, which totals only about 30 per cent of the seniors. "What about the other 70 per cent?", he asked. Job Is Opportunity Wysong took the job with the cooperative because he saw it as a way to expand on what he was working on as project director with the state board. "I saw this job as an opportunity to implement the state research that was done and try it on a school system," he commented. While working as project director, he developed statewide models in placement and follow-up. He said Wawasee and the two other high schools, Fairfield and West Noble, are leaders in providing this type of service. Only a few other school systems in Indiana offer a job placement service. He also said the educational side of the high schools is excellent, but could be even better with the service. "I think we need to tie all

school subject matter to a career," he said. "Everything we teach could be much more meaningful if we could tie it into a job." Besides offering information on types of jobs available, Wysong is helping the students on how to apply for a job. An employability skills mini-course will be given to all seniors in government class the last two weeks of the school year. Job information is also handed out in the sophomore careers class. He said, "We're trying to touch as many kids as we can." The service will be offered to students one year after graduation. A fullow-up on seniors will also be done a year after graduation to see what kind of job they have, how they like it and how high school helped them prepare for it. Dean At Ivy Tech Wysong, who lives In South Bend with his wife, Dorothy, and three children, David, 18, Julie, 15, and Andrew, 13, was educated at Indiana University. He received his bachelor's in industrial arts and his master's in guidance.

As an administrator, he has served as industrial coordinator and adult and vocational education director for the South Bend Community School Corporation and dean and regional director for Indiana Vocational Technical College, South Bend. He plans to move to the Syracuse area this summer. His grandparents lived ijn Syracuse, so he is familiar with the area. His interests include camping, hunting, fishing and kids. "I have a real interest in kids. I see a real need for activities for kids." That is why he is on the Saint Joseph County 4-H board of directors and the Northern Indiana council board of the Boy Scouts of America. Even though this job service is only federally funded for one year, Wysong hopes to continue working with it. He said, "What we hope to do is develop a system that we can keep going without holding onto federal research money. We feel there is a lot of opportunity for work in this area. It's what the kids want and what the employers need."

to save energy because of the coal strike, but if the coal miners saw how much grief everyone was in, they would probably have us turn on the street lights and they would start working. “If they were soft-hearted, like me. I wish you could write up a contract, fast, to suit the coal miners. That dog had no reason to die. She protected rhe yesterday. I was taking a walk and a strange dog scared me. Sugar was in my yard. She chased the other dog away. Sugar made sure 1 got in my front door." Elizabeth's letter continues by naming other youngsters in the neighborhood who were friends of Sugar and of eight-year-old Jay, Sugar’s master. President Carter’s form letter was mailed March 10 from Washington and reads as follows: “I appreciate the interest which prompted you to share your views with me. Thank you for letting me hear from you, Jimmy Carter” While the letter won’t bring Sugar back, it does help to know someone cares and Elizabeth and her friends are all happy to know the strikers over and the lights are back on in Franklin. — — Ninety percent of the U.S, grape crop is grown in California.
