These are Pacific Lutheran University students who volunteered as tutors for children at Lister Elementary in early 1968. Terry Stedman, a junior at PLU, observes as PLU freshman Cathy Long helps Denise Camoza, 9, with her reading lesson. Terry and Cathy were two of the 350 college and high school students who volunteered their time in weekly two-hour sessions at one of Tacoma-Pierce County Opportunity & Development, Inc., centers established in the city. Children received individual attention and help in their studies. These students were photographed in the school library.
