GRADUATED BARBER STUDENTS 

The Board discussed administrating the barber or barber-stylists examination as students graduate from barber school.  Upon receipt of a completed application, a conference call will be scheduled to discuss the arrangements so the student will not have to wait until the next scheduled board meeting to take the exam.
