Or (3) A student near graduation can go up to the Unive.sity on an early admission; this way there is no chance for this person to receive his high school diploma but this is bad if the person does not finish college. Mr. Richard Wootton, counselor, points out that It is difficult to get into the BYU. A person may want to apply to other colleges. The prospective graduate should start to look at other schools, other than the BYU. "It is wise for a student who thinks there is a possibility of graduating, to go ahead and apply for college entrance and take the ACT test. All youre out is a little time and money, states Miss Donna Turley, counselor. Mr. Wootton adds, Students who are so close to graduating should finish up their lacking credits by correspondence if they do not finish during the school year. Class rankings for the graduating juniors will probably be separate from the seniors, but the whole junior class would be considered not just those juniors planning to graduate. The grades that will be sent in to the college of the students choice will be the grades from the end of the tenth grade and the first semester of the eleventh grade. Both of the counselors' remind those students wishing to graduate to sign up for the ACT test before the 6nd of this week and send in your application for admission early. There will be no consideration made for college admittance unless these things are done, concluded Mr. 1963 r' irr 1 1- - in 59-5- 3.

Dear Editor, Since the announcement concerning the closing of the Brigham Young University Laboratory Schools was made, a few protest groups have been organized. ' At the PTA meeting last Monday, a list of 15 questions was presented to President Wilkinson. He, along with Vice-Preside- nt Crockett, answered these questions plus others asked in a question and answer period at the conclusion of their remarks. The students here have, on a whole, acepted this quite well. I think, along with many others, that we should not dwell on the past but make BY High go out with a bang. Make BY High something to be remembered in many years to come. Often, many unexpected things come up in our lives that we must learn to take. Think of it as a perparation for the future. You are getting a taste of life. It is now time to concentrate on the future. Kim Hanson |
