INTRODUCTION

College choice and college admission have become the talk of the

day, whether it be in educational circles, parent groups or amongstudents themselves° These topics present the most frustrating of alleducational problems facing college-bound students. They are the mosttime consuming counseling tasks of high school counselors and the mostexacting and precarious decisions facing college admissions officers.Both high schools and colleges are groping for better ways of joiningforces to ease these problems for all concerned.

The most common and widely practiced activity for bringing highschools and colleges together in a cooperative approach to collegecounseling is that of sponsoring College Days, While College Days havebeen generally successful!, they have become problems for both collegesand high schools. College officials in North Carolina have begun to

wonder if the values received from College Days, either by collegesor high schools, justify the time, expense and personal sacrifice ofcollege admissions officers who are away from their colleges fromSeptember to December on the College-Day Circuit, Likewise, schoolpeople have been weighing the values of College Day against such factorsas the time required for pre-planning, the disruptions in the schoolday for all pupils in the interest of a few, and the actual helpindividual students can receive from college representatives whoseconference time in the school is limited and hurried because of theexacting time schedule they must follow.

The problems which have arisen as a result of the growing painsof College Days prompted the Committee on High School-College Relationsof the North Carolina College Conference, whose function it is toschedule College Days, to seek other ways of providing college infor-mation to high school students and counselors

„

The College Visitation Workshop was conceived as a new anddifferent approach to college counseling and was based on the follow-ing assumptions §

That If school counselors who know the characteristics andpossibilities of their students had more first-hand information aboutcolleges, they could do a better job of counseling all students oncollege choice.,

That better counseling of students prior to College Day would reducethe number of "shoppers around" on College Day and thereby enablecollege representatives to give their limited time to seriousapplicants who need additional counselingo

That adequate counseling by school counselors, well informedon colleges, could likely reduce the need and the desire forCollege Day in some schoolso

That this opportunity for counselors to visit all collegecampuses and talk face-to-face with college officials could be thebest possible way to establish the cooperative relationship betweencolleges and high schools which is so essential if students are toreceive the guidance they need as problems of college choice andadmissions increase.

- 2 =

The idea of taking a group of thirty counselors on a tour ofthirty-four colleges , spread over a distance of 2000 miles , in two

weeks was truly a brainstorm and the committee had difficulty inconvincing itself that it could be more than thato Countless problemsand doubts plagued the thinking of the committee - transportation.,lodging, finances, distances, scheduling, response of the colleges,and the like° One by one these problems were minimized as thecommittee’s enthusiasm over the project and belief in its valuebecame stronger Enthusiasm and faith took over and action began3

Side-lights on the Committee at work indicate how the job wasundertaken: one member making the rounds of State offices seekingclearance for use of NDEA funds and State cars to solve financial andtransportation problems; another huddled with North Carolina road mapschecking routes and distances and scheduling colleges to be visitedeach day; one on the telephone calling colleges to beg a night“slodging; one checking all eating places on the route to learn wherethe best food could be had for the least; one writing letters t©college presidents announcing our visit and requesting confirmation;several preparing questionnaires to be filled out by collegeso

In four week’s time the mechanics of the tour had been workedout and five State cars were ready to roll on June 12, carrying 30excited and expectant counselors on a visit to thirty-four NorthCarolina Colleges, an adventure which few if any school people haveexperienced

„

Even after all was in readiness for the tour and the vision wasabout to become a reality, the committee had some misgivings aboutthe attitude of the colleges toward having a group of thirty inquiringvisitors descend upon them at a time when all were closed down for thesummer and college staffs were not intacto These doubts were quicklydispelled, however, when confirmations of the visits were received,from 32 of the 3^ colleges within ten days after announcements weremailed to college presidents., Many confirmations included personalexpressions of welcome and enthusiastic approbation of the project..

The coordiality with which counselors were greeted and thehospitality accorded them on the visit to each campus more thancompensated for the long and fatiguing hours of travel required tomake each visit., The group was wined and dined in the finest formsof culinary art ranging from a "show nuf" country ham breakfast to abuffet supper fit for the Gods, a gala evening party and midnightsnacks o

But the satisfactions were not all of body and spirit.. Theenlightenment which counselors received on college facilities,programs, policies and activities supplied the must needed foot-notesto items in the college catalogues which are essential to realisticcounseling of students on college choice.. Along with factualknowledge, the counselors also gained some of the intangible aids

for counseling 9 such as the feel of the college campuses andsome of the personalities which make the colleges what they are»

The general evaluation of the Workshop by all who participatedin it may be described in the words of a counselor when she said 9

"No college course or guidance activity of any nature could be ofgreater value to counselors in counseling students on collegechoice than an experience of this kind* How fortunate I am to beinvolved in this experiment and how I wish every counselor in NorthCarolina could have this experience.
