No special program changes will be made by the move of the Technical Drawing Department from lower to upper Campus, according to Richard S. Best, drawing and carpentry instructor. The Technical drawing classes that move to the new Technical building are of a broad scope. They cover nearly all subdivisions of engineering and carpentry. The drawing class must be taken by all the students who plan to go into any kind of engineering work. brauuates Receive Placement 'Boost' Mim1 Later fc One of the more interesting programs moving to upper campus is the Apprenticeship Program which is under nation-wide promotion by the United States Bureau of Labor.Apprenticeship training is actually on the job work tied in with technical education evening classes. The apprentices work with journeymen in their chosen field during the day. As pay they receive a percentage of qualified journeyman's pay which increases as they advance in the program. Each student meets every six months with the Joint Activity Council of his section. The JAC includes two people from business management; two from the labor force; a consultant from the U. S. Bureau of Labor and the Coordinator from Weber College. If the JAC for the student's section approves of his work, he is ad- tudents Get The Moench Auditorium was the scene of the annual Awards Assembly at which several individuals and organizations received due praise for the year's endeavors last Thursday. Some scholarships were given to worthy students for their excellence in academic work while others received pins or certificates. The awards were given on the basis of scholastic ability andextra-cir-ricular activities. vanced and receives, a salary boost. THE JAC OF each section insures the student of getting adequate opportunity on the job, good technical education from the school and spurs him on to greater proficiency. JAC for each section recommends the program and instructors to the school, which has the last word. Marvin Peterson acts as Coordinator for Webejr College in all of its Apprenticeship sections. AT THE PRESENT time the most prominent sections are the electrical, sheet metal, plumbing and carpenters. All trades are included in the program as -the need arises. No guarantee is offered of obtaining a job after graduation, but in working so close with management, labor and the school, few people go unhired upon graduating.INSTRUCTORS in the program are sheet metal, Lynn Marker; electricity, A. L. Smith; plumbing, William Murphy, and carpentry, Bei'dean Balls. All of the instructors are qualified journeymen. Regular classroom facilities in the new building will be used by the apprentices. The new rooms are being equipped with the latest functional type desks. I Many of the students who are j now taking the class are Mar-' quardt recruits. These people are being trained in the technical j fields at Weber College. I The course is a broad one con-i taining mathematics, machine drafting, and tool design. The tool designing part of the course will be continued into the Summer. Carpentry drafting and architectural drawing are also included. Those taking the class have the opportunity to apply the skills they learn by designing some of the tools they use. These tools are made by the machinists in the technical department. The same program which is now being used will continue after the move to the new building. This program has proved workable and The need for vocationally trained ! is turning out the desired quality Individual contacts play an important role in the placement of Weber College's vocationally educated students. Mr. Lorenzo E. Peterson said that besides the placement service offered by the college under Milt Mecham, each of the instructors was well known among men in his profession. Application forms are filled out by employers and appointments made for interviews through the Placement Service. and efficient personnel increases every day m the Ogden area, ac cording to Mr. Peterson. The Elec tromcs, Automotive, Machine in the men it trains. He also said that he hoped that the modern facilities offered by Mo" n."; "'ithe building would add zest to metology and other technical courses offer placement services to the graduate. the program. All the original equipment will be moved to the upper campus for use. riugi am Is s lex i Goal The primary additions to the electronics section are new, more elaborate and functional benches and storage facilities, said department head, Hurschell Urie. I; ?'' mm s -' . , r f j The better benches and layout of the new Electronics section meets with the approval of these newlv moved electronics students. One of the journeyman instructors in Weber College's Apprentice program is giving students the valuable technical knowledge they'll probably use on the job the next day. Better arrangement, will be another advantage of Die electronics department which was the only section not cramped in its lower campus quarters. Lighting in the electronics section will be by incandescent instead of fluorescent lights to avoid an increase in static. Mr. Urie is running the section this year with the assistance of Grant Horsley. James Dally, former head of the section, is taking a sabbatical leave at the University of Utah to gain his master's degree in electrical engineering. All types of electronics are the subject matter of the two-year course that rates a Certificate of Completion at its end. A placement program has put graduates into varied positions throughout the United States from Northmp Aircraft to ARCO, the atomic energy commission. The classes are also attended by night students wishing to further advance themselves in their present jobs. Mr. Urie said the section plans on expanding its program next year, conditions permitting.
