Williamsburg lecture scheduled<br />

The annual "Ladies Night"<br />

meeting of the local Professional<br />

Engineers will be held<br />

tonight at the Corning Glass<br />

Center. John P. Fox, Jr., director<br />

of the Corning Glass<br />

Center, will give a lecture entitled<br />

"Williamsburg Restored."<br />

Fo xis ideally suited' to discuss<br />

this subject in so much as<br />

prior to his joining the Corning<br />

GHasis Center, he was manager<br />

of tlhe reception center at<br />

Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia.<br />

Fox plans to review the fas-<br />

College graduates sought<br />

for secretarial positions<br />

What makes a good secretary?<br />

According to a survey of 100<br />

business exectuitives in New<br />

York City conducted by the<br />

Career Course of College Women,<br />

a secretarial slcihool for<br />

cofllege students, the three<br />

¡most important qualities of a<br />

good secretary are: Intelligence,<br />

good! skills, and 1 good<br />

appearance.<br />

Also, «he study showed that<br />

the boss values higihly the secretary<br />

who is diplomatic, discreet,<br />

politically savvy, organized,<br />

emotionally Stable and<br />

on time in the morning. In<br />

brief, the message for college<br />

girls starting their first job<br />

is to work hard' and keep their<br />

cool.<br />

What annoys men most<br />

laibout secretaries? Almost in<br />

unison, the respondents berated<br />

girls who did Sloppy work,<br />

received too many personal<br />

calls, were away from their<br />

desks too much, unable to handle<br />

phone messages and wiho<br />

were unable to grasp the nature<br />

of the job.<br />

Said one vice president of a<br />

major publishing house: "We<br />

Wad one secretary with us for<br />

three months, and found Out<br />

she thought she was working<br />

for an insurance company."<br />

Two findings of particular<br />

interest to the college student<br />

FIAT LUX<br />

2<br />

Alfred, N.T.<br />

May 14, 1968<br />

are that 86% of the respondent<br />

preferred college girls<br />

for secretaries and recognized<br />

they would have to pay them<br />

more than the high school<br />

graduate; arid while secretarial<br />

sHcUOis are essential prerequisites<br />

for a job (all respondents<br />

demlanded both<br />

shorthand and' typing, rating<br />

accuracy in both skills more<br />

important than speed), a high<br />

percentage of the men said<br />

they are looking for secretaries<br />

who show initiative, and<br />

who are willing to assume other<br />

duties, such as writing letters<br />

and speeches, doing basic<br />

research, and handling special<br />

events of the company.<br />

cinating work of historians and<br />

architects in their efforts to<br />

preserve and restore a most<br />

interesting segment of the<br />

American past. He will also<br />

emphasize the role of Williamsburg<br />

in the 18th Century and<br />

stress the development of the<br />

city plan which they have contributed.<br />

Fox is a native of Roanoke,<br />

Virginia, a World War n veteran,<br />

and a graduate of the<br />

College of William arid Mary<br />
