Secretary of the Year Taught Herself Typing by Self Study
Mrs. Harlan Beem of 600 Taylor Dr Carbondale named Secretary of the Year by the National Secretaries Association. She taught herself to type in the 1930s when her husband Coles County superintendent of Schools needed office help. Now office manager for Dean Willis Swertz at Southern Illinois University Graduate School, she oversees three student secretaries, trains them, and performs duties from typing to dusting. She values professional certification, plans to take the remaining CPS exam in St. Louis, and believes many area secretaries neglect further training. She and her husband moved to Carbondale from the University of Illinois nearly four years ago and enjoy gardening as a hobby.
