Honor Student Chooses Vocational Career
’’** **•*’* HUI
▼ M »
At 20, Irleen Way, part-time college student, and
full-time employe holding down a responsible job at
in Augusta with a major fast-food chain.
Among
many maturing experiences as a vocational student was
Miss Way’s term as president of VICA (1971-1972). A
point came during the employer-employe banquet
wnen, on behalf of the school, business and the
organization, she was presented a plaque, trophy and
gavel in recognition of her efforts for vocational
education.
What VICA Taught Me. By
being a member of VICA, I
developed the important skill
of showing pride in the work I
did, and I learned to respect
my employer, 1 learned how to
work hamoniously with others,
I had high regards for my
fellow workers, and the
position I held as his employe.
And, by this, I became more
self-confident and I felt I had
learned the dignity of work.
Doing my best in everything 1
did became the path to success
and self-fulfillment.
My senior year in high
school, I was elected president
of the Vocational Industrial
Clubs of America for the
school term. My travels and
experiences in this capacity
strengthened my desire to
enter an employment field
where I}'would work* directly

News Review
1008 Ellis Street
Augusta, Georgia
Gentlemen:
The City of Augusta congratulates the News Review
on its Third Anniversary.
Factual reporting and thought provoking editorials
have assured the success of this newspaper for
these three years.
Many happy returns.
Sincerely,
I
A-
Lewis A. Newman
Mayor
with people-but those
opportunities seemed limitless.
Perhaps in away, the
diversity of opportunities I saw
was a handicap as well as an
asset. There were so many
interesting jobs that it was
difficult to choose the one that
interested me most.
The Urge To Teach. At
graduation, because of my
desire to teach vocational
education, I decided that
Education would be the best
field to enter in coi’ege. I knew
also that whatever 1 learned in
my Education courses would
more likely be applicable to
nearly any other field should I
change my mind about
teaching.
When 1 applied at our local
college,not without some doubts
as to whether 1 would be
accepted with only one year of
French, I was notified of my
acceptance without any
questions asked about why I
only had one credit in foreign
language. I could not help but
feel that the second year of
language I was told I so
desperately needed would have
been a waste of time
academically, at least for me.
Still Looking Ahead. The
job I took has proved to be an
education in itself. I enjoy my
work because I am doing
something with people, for
people. During my
employment with this
company, I have taken
supervisory and psycology
courses at college, which in
part, led to my being named
assistant manager.
However, this title and
positions have not kept me from
an increasing desire to learn
more and make a better
employe of myself. Neither
has it quenched my thirst to
someday teach-perhaps in the
capacity of an industrial
cooperative training
coordinator, or as a “new
employe” instructor, or
perhaps even as a
radiologist-teaching medicine
to future X-ray technicians.
One thing is for sure-I feel
that my education has only
begun. Each day, each person I
come in contact with brings
something new to be learned.
Something to be cherished as a
part of total education and
something to use in order to
become a better individual.
Sympathy for the counselor.
I cannot blame my counselor
for the attitude she expressed
that afternoon when I decided
to change my curriculum from
strictly college-preparatory to a
combination of academic and
vocational programs. I am
aware of the pressures on so
many guidance counselors
today pressures to have as
many seniors as possible
accepted at college before
graduation, to have more
students as National Merit
Scholars than in previous years,
and so on.
And I am also aware that the
reason these pressures exist is
that even our industry-oriented
society has not yet learned that
hard work is not degrading or
undesirable, and “trade” is not
a dirty word.
It is my great desire to see
this attitude change. I believe it
is time for the needs of the
students to come before the
need for a great number of
college acceptances. There are
many students who should be
told that the world is not
closed to them simply because
they could not make over 700
or 800 on a College Board
exam. Their time and energies
in school need not be wasted
simply because they do not
plan to attend college. And
those students who do become
involved in vocational training
need better guidance in
choosing the academic courses
which will be of the most
benefit to them in their chosen
field.
Relevant to Life. I am
grateful for my vocational
training, and for the help my
coordinator gave in choosing a
relevant curriculum. If I had
remained in a strictly
college-preparatory program, I
might have been better
prepared for college entrance. I
might well be a senior in
college now-but I would not
be prepared for my future
beyond college graduation.
Neither would I know the
satisfaction and pride I feel
when I have given a “good
day’s work” to my employers,
nor would I have been able to
become assistant manager in a
company such as ours.
See how very much I
would have missed?
