"But, we are also using it as a career exploration unit for kids who are trying to find a career." "We're considering using the directory and placement office to show them what's required with jobs and also as career information for freshmen and sophomore studnets. A lot of kids really don't know what jobs are all about." About 2,300 students, in cluding drop-outs and alter native school students, are directly affected by the program at McHenry high school. The placement service provides students, former students, and community adults a means of seeking employment. It also provides employers with a local job bank of available employees. It is the policy of the service to help every individual and employer who wants assistance. Em ployment applications are accepted without regard to race, age, or educational level. The services our school district placement office offers, in conjunction with other county schools, CETA offices, and Job service, is being billed as the most comprehensive job placement project in the state. | SERVICE NEWS | Germany Tour Of Duty For U.S. Airman U.S. Air Force Airman First Class Steven M.

McHENRY 1 *S5@SS WE WILL BE OPEN FOR LUNCH AND DINNER 7 DAYS A WEEK BEGINNING MARCH 24tH Women Share Hopes, Ideas Trying out crafts that help children express their creativity was one workshop activity during Women's Information day at McHenry County college. Instructor B.J. Anderson, right, urged the women to let children create their own projects rather than teaching them how to make an item. Ms. Anderson is coordinator of the child care curriculum at MCC which trains workers for day care centers and nursery schools. The eighty-six women who attended Women's Information day at McHenry County college were looking for something. They told MCC counselors they wanted to find careers in everything from real estate sales to art and music. And they asked the college to help them with transportation, child care, and preparing their families to share household responsibilities. The youngest was 22, the oldest 82. They came from throughout the county to spend March 11 at the college because they wanted to learn about returning to school, wanted to find courses to enrich their lives and wanted to find other women who were facing similar obstacles. The information day was the first held at MCC. College of ficials are hopeful it can be repeated, both because a large number of women came to find out about the college and because the women in turn gave the college ideas on their needs and on possible courses. At the beginning of the day's activities, MCC president, Dr. Robert G. Harris, told the women that MCC would "try to open all kinds of doors and windows" for them. The college's ability to serve their needs is limited "only by imagination and money," Harris said. / The women, in turn, told the college they wanted seminars on topics like business management, self-awareness, coping with teenagers, finding a job, marriage counseling and child abuse. They said their major in terests or occupational areas were everything from psychology and teaching to FORMAL WEAR RENTALS for ALL OCCASIONS tttU jpt food science and horticulture. They mentioned careers as varied as speech therapy, in terior design, library science, writing and clerical work. Some said they didn't know what career or area of study they wanted to pursue. One woman said her major interest was "survival." Another ad mitted, "I don't know, but I'm on my way to finding out." Nancy Loomis, women's day coordinator, said, "When we started work on this day we had no idea of the response we would get. We were really impressed by the women who came and by their con tributions to the program." -r Some women were disap pointed that timing did not allow them to attend all five of the workshops offered during the day. But others found the day "perfect," "very stimulating" or "super". "Just being here reinforced my decision to return to school," one said. Another said about the day's activities, "The experience was so human- understanding hearts and minds." Two women urged the college to offer more workshops and courses geared to women who want to remain at home. One asked for help in getting used to family and household obligations after leaving a fulltime job. ^ Women who came for the day toured the campus and at- Hazardous tended workshops on going back to school, creative play with children, assertive com munication, decision making, and becoming a home han- dyperson. The women also learned about MCC's special com position course designed for women returning to school and about new courses that will be offered next Fall and Spring on Women's Studies and women and Literature. Many said they planned to sign up for another workshop June 24 at the college which is designed to give specific in formation as well as emotional support to men and women who are thinking of returning to school. The women at the in formation day laughed at readings from two authors about mid-life crisis presented by MCC instructor Suzanne Vadasz, and applauded the Rev. Barbara Merritt who urged them to "wing it, jump out into a jet stream" to get the education and careers they want. Telling the women that they would need "faith in yourself and probably in something beyond yourself" to succeed, Merrit said that women older than 30 are in demand in the job market. "The community needs you; the world needs you; we need what you have to give," she told the group: Muteriuls Seminar Given Grant The McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster agency has received a highway safety grant to con duct a Hazardous Materials seminar for 50-150 Emergency Response personnel. John J. Shay of McHenry, project director and ESDA coor dinator, received approval of the project from the Illinois Department of Tran sportation's Division of Traffic Safety. McHenry County ESDA personnel will direct the seminar, which will provide training in the proper methods of response to hazardous materials incidents in an effort to preserve life and property The participants will be from all emergency response agencies, private industry, elected officials, and emergency medical units in the area.
