By Loretta Carter
Of The Print
Did you know there is a
place on campus, that has a
very well-rounded, comfor­
table atmosphere, with people
willing to help anytime? This
place also has a computer,
catalogs, and pamphlets to
assist you in charting your
career future. The place is the
Career Development and
Placement Center.
Marv Thornley, the
Center’s director, is “willing
to help” in any way possible.
Thornley has been involved in
the Center for ten years. Also
working with Thornley is Kate
Adams, job placement
specalist. She has been in the
Center for twelve years.
Other staff persons include,
Sheri Schoenborn, secretary
and Jo Ann Truesdell, career
developement specialist.
Truesdell started in her pos­
tion this October.
The Center also coordinates
the work study program.
The purpose of the Career
Center is to help students or
the public to learn how to get a
job through resumes, job ap­
plications, and by teaching
them to be assertive. They also
advise students about what
types of jobs will suit them
best.
The staff can help with self­
assessment programs and a

Play season debuts with ‘Increased Difficulty’
By Erik Conrad
Of The Print
Eduard Huml is in trouble--
too many things are going on
in his life. It’s getting to the
point where he can’t even
think. To add to all his pro­
blems, he develops an increas­
ed difficulty of concentration
and gets involved in situations
which are nothing but
humorous.
“The Increased Difficulty
of Concentration” kicks off
Your Toughest College
Assignment

It takes more than a good mind
to get through college or vocational '
school. It takes a lot of money.
But money should ,be the least of
your worries, and that's where
Far West Federal Bank can help.

the play season at the College
in early December. Perfor­
mance dates are set for Dec.
5-7, 13 and 14 at 8 p.m. and
Dec. 15 at 2:30 p.m. in the
McLoughlin Theater.
The play centers around Dr.
Eduard Huml, a professor of
social science who begins to
have trouble separating the
different facets of his life. As
Dr. Huml’s trouble begins, a
team of scientists initiate a
computer-aided psychological
profile of Dr. Huml. The
assisting piece of machinery is
named Puzuk, which has a
mind of its own-and an un­
fortunate temperment.
The play follows Dr. Huml
and his escapades as the dif­
ferent parts of his life come
crashing together.
Jack Shields, the play’s
director, explained that “It is
a treatise on the complexity of
life. It is confused. It is also
hysterically funny.”
“The Increased Difficulty
of Concentration” was sleeted
from a group of four plays
which were voted upon by the
group of students auditioning
and by Shields.
When asked about his
outlook on the production,
Shields said, “Bright, very
bright.”
He said he was pleased with
the cast, commenting “It’s a
very strong cast with a lot of
solid experience behind it.”
Many institutions also require a
co-signer, but at Far West no co­
signature is necessary. There's no
worry, even if you don't have a
credit rating. And, Far West does
not require a previous or current
account relationship.
