Big Brother

The next step is orientation. In
the Big Brother/Big Sister program,
this means interviews with all
volunteers to explain just what's
expected. The interview also lets
the experienced Big Sisters and
Brothers explain the most common
difficulties, problems to watch for,
and the recreational opportunities
availing in the program. The
orientation meeting will be held
Tuesday evening, September 28, at
7:30 in Wilson Hall 402.

The tutoring orientation
meeting will be on Monday also at
7:30 in Wilson 402. The problem
here is to match the skills of the
volunteer to the age group, subject,
and school where the need is
greatest. Besides Albemarle and
Lane High Schools, there are several
elementary and Junior High School
tutoring programs that need
assistance. In addition, tutors are

needed for the Davis Ward of
University Hospital, and adult
program, and a study center.
