at American Institute of Business. She is the daughter of Clifford and
Arlone Day, Oakes, and is the wife of Stephen Parrish.
Parrish earned the highest possible grade point average, a 4.0 or
"straight A's" during the 1989 Fall Quarter She is majoring in

AIB President Keith Fenton awarded a Presidential Scholar's certifi-
cate to Parrish on January 21 in recognition of her accomplishments.

Health Council voted to
discon!inue supplying private
physlcmns & clinics with vaccine
Over the years, the State
Department of Health and
Consolidated Laboratories has uti-
lized federal funds from the Centers
for Disease Control and state gener-
al funds to purchase vaccine for
childhood vaccine preventable dis-
eases. According to Robert M.
Wentz, M.D., State Health Officer,
the state has provided private physi-
cians these vaccines at no charge
for the past seven years. These vac-
cines include DTP, which provides
protection from diphtheria, tetanus
and pertussis (whooping cough),
OPV or oral polio vaccine, and
MMR which protects against
measles, mumps and reubella
(German measles).
Dr. Wentz indicated that on
January 24, 1990, the State Health
Council voted to support the
Department's recommendation to
discontinue supplying private
physicians and clinics with vaccine
effective March 1, 1990. Physicians
have been advised to order their
vaccine supplies from vaccine ven-
dors and have been provided with
vendor names and addresses.
According to Wentz, the vaccines
purchased by the Department will
be fumished to the local, city and
county health departments and will
be available to all children of fami-
lies unable to afford the cost of vac-
cine and vaccine administration in
private physicians' offices. Wen
indicated that there are various rea-
sons for the policy change includ-
ing the following:
1. The change will allow the
Department of Health and
Consolidated Laboratories to better
target state-provided vaccine to
those least able to pay.
2. The Department will be better
able to direct vaccine to North
Dakota residents. In the past, a sub-
stantial amount of vaccine was
being used to immunize out-of-state
residents in border clinics.
3. The Department will be able to
achieve some significant cost sav-
ings in packaging and shipping of
the vaccine.
4. The policy change will allow
the Department to provide second
doses of the measles-mumps-
reubella vaccine to children in the
4-6 year age range as recently rec-
ommended by the Advisory
Committee for Immunization
Practices and the Centers for
Disease Control.
For additional information, con-
tact the Division of Disease Control
at 224-2378 or 1-800-472-2180.

outheast Vo ational Center
Students attending the Southeast
Vocational Center have been taking
advantage of CHOICES, a relative-
ly new career guidance program in
its second year of use. Juniors of
the four area schools are presently
going through this 3-4 hour career
exploration system.
CHOICES is both a computer
and career exploration system.
However student find that they
need no prior knowledge of com-
puters to benefit from it.
The process consists in complet-
ing a series of self-assessment exer-
cises ina work book called the
Guide. This is followed up by
spending approximately an hour
conversing with the computer in a
question and answer type of format.
The computer provides a complete
printout and conversation summary
which is used for follow-up career
counseling. The student at this time
will have 3-5 good lists of occupa-
tions for consideration.
Students can access the computer
to a Search section and an
Information section. The Search
• section allows the user to explore
for occup ations using as an refer-
ence the personal information
gained from the work completed in
the Guide workbook. This section
also can use a route called Related
which generates occupations relat-
ed to a base occupation on the basis
of the attributes of that occupation.
The Information section provides
detailed information on 675 occu-
pations and thousands of related
Ken Reuther
titles. The Choices Career comput-
erized program, there is also a col-
leges component. Information on
over 2400 colleges is available in
reference to tuition and housing
costs, admission details, academic
programs, etc. This type of infor-
mation should help students with
informed choices in careers.
We are hopeful that by the use of
this high technology system, stu-
dents will have another key to help
them make sound career choices in
a complex and changing society.
