The May issue of Vocational Education Magazine commends Mt. Zion Seminary in Mt. Zion Georgia for integrating vocational studies into the curriculum.

The vocational line includes domestic science and arts for girls and agriculture and business for boys, boosting enrollment 47 percent in 1914 and aiding financial revival.
