Student needs given first priority
by University placement service
“We are oriented to the needs
of students,” says June Wyant,
information specialist at the
Career Planning and Placement
Service (CPPS). “For prac
ticality, we try to show students
how they can build on the skills
they have learned.”
The career center located on
the second floor of the Susan
Campbell building houses a
variety of services for the
University student, and has since
September 1972.
Wyant explained that CPPS
holds weekly resume writing
workshops which are held every
Monday at 9:30 a.m. The
workshop shows a prospective
student how to write a resume,
cover sheet, and do’s and don’ts
for letters. “Some recruiters
don’t insist on resumes, but the
center likes students to use them,
because it is more professional,”
stressed Syant.
Another section of the CPPS is
Job Search. This part of the
center enables a student to find
information on how to apply for
jobs, sources of job information,
but does not guarantee the
student getting a particular job.
Carol Hendricks, University
doctoral student in psychology
teaches a workshop entitled Job
Interview. The workshop is a
kind of cookbook recipe on how to
appear for an interview. The
student is video-taped and the
tape is replayed enabling the
student to see how he or she
looks. “Fidgeting sometimes
blocks out the aggressive
behavior of a potential em
ployee,” said Wyant, “and we
want the student to show self
confidence, and have a positive
attitude about themselves.”
Career development is another
service which goes out to
sororities, fraternities and
dorms, presenting informal job,
and career programs. Theresa
Ripley teaches a career alter
natives class which helps
students use the skills they have
in planning careers. Students not
satisfied with the college
program may decide to go into
the career field before finishing
four or more years at college.
Outreach is a sector of CPPS
which funnels requests from
University groups wishing in
formation in some career area.
For instance, last year a
University sociology class
requested information on how to
present themselves in the social
work field. The center aided them
with the needed information.
The counselors which aid
students at CPPS, in addition to
Ripley and Wyant, are Ulysses
Whitehead, athletics; Sandy
Heines, education; and Don
McCartney, director of the
program.
Another aspect of CPPS is the
credential file preparation which
is data collected on students, and
which is open for students to
discuss with a counselor.
Recruiting is another per

spective of the center, as headed
by Roscoe Divine. Divine coor
dinates recruiting visits of
companies and industries to the
University. Students can sign up
for recruit visits at the center.
Wyant stressed that in the
business world there is a need for
people who like to work with their
hands or with materials. The
business world is lacking
mechanics and technicians in all
fields, according to Wyant.
The CPPS has a career in
formation center where pam
phlets and booklets can be found
on industries, companies, and
general information.
The center also has a career
computer which it hopes to install
in the EMU in the near future
when construction is completed.
In this way, the computer will be
open for all to use, added Wyant.
“We hope students are aware
of our existence,” said Wyant.
“Students should come to the
center for planning and
recommendations in their
sophomore or junior year.” The
center is very open, informal and
a good way to gather information
and ideas for planning careers,
concluded Wyant.
