- PRACTICAL APPROACH' LEADS WIDOW TO TEACHING POSITION
New teachers, usually have some more idealistic goal than money.
Not Alyce Gauthier, of Livonia. It was just a matter of economics that lead her to go to school for four and a half years to get a teaching certificate.
"When my husband died in 1957, I reviewed our financial situation and realized that it would be best for the entire family if I could be prepared to start working when Mary Beth (Mrs. Gauthier's youngest daughter) started first grade," she said.
"Any natural talent I had would be working with teenage students. The field of business has always interested me. Hence business education."
Just pure and simple economics, Mrs. Gauthier, 9611 Melrose, admitted.
LIVONIA SUBSITUTE
Mrs. Gauthier, who was graduated from the university of Detroit in August, is now a subtitute teacher in the Livonia school system. She can teach typing, shorthand, business law, or economics.
Her husband, Laurence, died Feb. 1, 1957, of lung cancer. He was manager of the chemical and metallurgical engineering department of Ford Motor Co.
"I estimated that the insurance money would last six years. This would give me six years to equip myself to do something," Mrs. Gauthier said.
When she started at U. of D. in September, 1957, she had been out of school almost 17 years. She had been graduated from St. Anthony High School in June, 1940.
HIGH GRADES
At U. of D. Mrs. Gauthier had a B average and received an award for scholarship from the United Business Education Association.
The youngest of Mrs. Gauthier's five children received motherly care from a neighbor, Mrs. Alma Brielmaier, 9815 Melrose, while Mrs. Gauthier was at school.
The youngest, Mary Beth, was 1 1/2 when her mother started school, is now a first grader at Rosedale Grade School, Livonia.
The other four children are spread from the 12th grade down:
Michele, 17, is a senior at Ladywood High School; her younger sister, Laura, 15, is a sophomore. Larry, 11, is in the sixth grad at St. Michael Grad School. David, 9, is a fourth grader at Roseville.
CHILDREN'S DEGREE
"My children have all earned this degree," Mrs. Gauthier says. "Without their help with chores around the house, it could never have been done."
"Mrs. Brielmaier, also, is due a great deal of credit. I could never have left day after day without knowing they were being loved and cared for."
Mrs. Gauthier has a little sideline also.
She's "Mom" to several University of Michigan students from India who go to her house for weekends and vacations.
"For the past three years we have opened out home to students from U. of M. from India. They - three boys in particular - have spent Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring vacations with us, plus many weekends throughout the year," Mrs. Gauthier says.
"I'm "Mom" to these boys and my children are their 'American brothers and sisters,' " she adds.
