COMPULSORY CHAPEL AND LECTURES
The folowing article was taken from the Yale News:

Ifind the work he is best fitted to do. A following out of certain specific
considerations will materially aid the young man who, after four or more
years of intensive training such as is now offered in the major schools of
"the country, facc life's work. The terms "career" and "life's work" are
used advisedly because in most cases the college graduate has fairly well
decided what he wishes to do. After this his major problem is tho selection
of the particular organization in which he is to give his energies play. On
the other hand, thero are a largo number of young men who have little

.the choosing of u company in which they may properly "find" themselves is
'most important.
A few years ago, except in isolated cases, there was apparantly no
scientific method in any young man's mind as to how such u problem could
be approached. As a result, th man, as well as the industry, lost a great
'deal of time in getting to the place whore a proper contribution could be
made and rewarded. With the recent growth on an increasingly close
relationship between educational institutions and industry, however, the
program begins to take definito shape; and it is our belief that in later
years jhe average student will attack this problem of choosing the company
withvhich he wishes to become affiliated in much the sume manner as he
attacks any laboratory test; first setting up his problem, then getting
