VOCTIONAL COMMITTEE
MAKES YEARS PLANS
Analyze Entrance Application Blanks
And Discuss Need of Student
Vcational Placements
MICHIGAN IS NEAR TOP{
Summarizing the work of the past
year, and outlining its plans for the
future, was the main purpose of the
meeting of the Committee of Vocation-
al Counsel and Placemen't held Friday.
The Committee of Vocational Coun-
sel is a senatorial committee and its
organization was approved by the
Board of Regents, Jan. 28, 1926. Un-
der the limitations laid down by the
Board for the first year this commit-
tee was limited to research on investi-
gations of the requirements of various
occupations, the personal qualities
and character for specific vocations,
and the method of determihing apti-
tude.
During the past year two studies
have been carried on: the analysis of
the ,new entrance application blanks
that must be filled out by all students
entering the University of Michigan
for the first; and the needs of the
University in the placement of stu-
dents in occupations, vocational coun-
sel, the way this is handled in other
schools and colleges. According to
Professor Yoakum of the School of
Business Administration, Michigan
ranks well up in the frnt in the scope
of its plans, and as there is every
probability of its plans being executed,
that its results will soon bring it to
the top in this work.
At the last meeting, the work for the
coming year was outlined, and three
major activities were planned. A
bibliography of all vocational material
will be made. Thus far 1200 titles in
57 vocations have been listed. Voca.-
tional monographs on those vocations
which are most popular to Michigan
graduates, and describing personality,
character, training required of stu-
dents, the rate of progress, the aver-
age salary scale, and data of similar
character, will be published. The
committee will also select the best
methods of placement and reccom-
mend these methods to other schools
and colleges.
During the past year the committee
planned and projected the english and
mathematics content examinations
and scholastic aptitude used by the
college entrance examination board.
Reccommendations were also made
and carried out that the bureau of
University research to -be established.
This was done and the Board of Re-
gents set aside funds for the bureau
which is now functioning.
