Y 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.
