They’re rather prag matic.” Carpenter was among 20 high school counselors who partici pated in a three-day summer con ference at Texas A&M University. Sponsored by the Texas A&M School Relations Office and the Association of Former Students, the conference gave the counse lors a chance to tour the campus, to sit in on student advising ses sions and to find out about hous ing, admission requirements and Aggie traditions. Sarah Langston, a counselor at Brazoswood High School in Clute, said high school seniors are choos ing to go into technical areas. “I think students are leaning to ward technical-vocational careers because that’s where the money is,” she said. Several counselors said Texas A&M should fare well in attracting that kind of student. Langston recommends Texas A&M to students who are consid ering going into engineering. “I think it’s one of the top schools in the U.S. for engineering,” she said. The counselors expressed con cern, however, that high school students seem to be less con cerned with the depth and scope of their education. “I’m having more difficulty trying to persuade my seniors to take senior English, which is op tional,” said Eleni Vlahakos, a counselor at Pasadena High School. “I’ve never experienced this before.” Vlahakos said the students she counsels are having more trouble with reading and writing and therefore want to avoid English. Family economics is also a fac tor in choosing a college. Carpen ter said. “Half of our senior class goes to community college and I think economics is a big part of it,” she said. Catherine Roberts said, “They’re afraid they don’t have the money right now. ” Roberts is a retired counselor at Carroll High School in Corpus Christi. In the past students felt they could get the money some way if they tried. Those who do go on to get a college education find an added advantage with a degree from Texas A&M, several counselors said. Don Hancock, a counselor at Midway High School in Waco, said Texas A&M graduates in hir ing positions tend to favor appli cants who also have a degree from the University. Students are con scious of that when they select a University, he said. “I’ve seen it happen,” Hancock said. “The reputation of A&M goes along with it (the degree).” A&M offers facilities for handicapped Albert Mahood’s wheelchair could have restricted his study of a relatively little-known group of phytoplankton that grows in San Franciso Bay. But the oceanog rapher who was able to collaborate with him in the research was at Texas A&M University — a cam pus which Mahood says is one of the most accessible he has navi gated on four wheels. “The University has done an outstanding job of preparing facili ties for the handicapped.” he said. Mahood, who teaches biology at San Rafael (Calif.) High School and is a consultant in diatom and algae ecology, said he wants to let handicapped high school students who are hesitant about attending college know that Texas A&M is designed and equipped to meet their special needs. Dr. Greta Fryxell, assistant professor of oceanography, was the researcher who drew Mahood to Texas A&M. “Dr. Fryxell was the only per son who could answer my ques tions (about the diatom genus Tha- lassiosira),” he said. Fryxell and Mahood identified more than 20 different species of the genus during his two-week stay at Texas A&M although only two had previously been re ported. An inaccessible campus would have made the project impossible, she said. Excellent facilities receive only half of the credit for the good im- presion the campus left on Ma hood, however. “It’s not just the physical aspects of this — it’s the people,” he said. “I have yet to open a door. It’s a very courteous campus. It’s just outstanding.” Both Fryxell and Mahood were impressed with the ease of arrang ing for his accommodations in a campus dorm. “I was so impressed with the courtesies they (housing officials) showed im preparing for Al’s visit,” Fryxell said. “There was a tremendous ‘can do’ attitude. There wasn’t any of this, ‘We’ll see and call you back.’ It was just, ‘Yes, we can to it.’”
