Abstract

It has been suggested that in an emergency we must do better those things which always need to be done. The present situation offers many valuable opportunities for vocational guidance. How may school systems throughout the country begin work which they have not yet begun or do better the work which they are already doing in this field, and at the same time give that extra measure of service which will help vocational guidance make its much needed contribution to the defense of our country? To answer this question the following article has been prepared by a committee of the National Vocational Guidance Association, composed of Samuel Barth, Chicago; Clifford E. Erickson, Evanston, Illinois; Josephine Streit Shapiro, Cincinnati; Marguerite W. Zapoleon, Washington, D. C.; Florence E. Clark, Chicago, Chairman; and Mary P. Corre, ex officio. The committee was an outgrowth of a joint conference of NVGA representatives and representatives of the U. S. Office of Education, held in Washington in the fall of 1940, to determine ways in which the NVGA might be of special service in this emergency.
