Jobs
By Don Maynard
The University will throw its
.02 per cent's worth into the busi
ness swirl this June when ap
proximately 1,230 of its sons and
daughters join the ranks of near
ly oOO.OOO lollegu graduates. And
til, or at least, most of them
will be hunting jobs.
They won't find the going easy,
according to Commissioner of La
bor Statistics Ewan Cleague. He
Kays there arc fewer jobs for col
lege graduates this year than for
any other post-war year, and
there are more young folks car
rying eepskins and job-hunting
than ever before.
Ho predicted that in 1950, and
" probably in the following two
years, many would be unable tc
. find positions in the professions
in which they have been trained.
About half of these "superior"
t young men and women are vet
erans, many of whom held jobs
before the war, but tlteir posi
tion is no more tenable than the
next graduate.
It is a sobering outlook for
most of these wayfarers on the
road of business. Previous experi
ence, degree por honorable dis
charge will help to any appre
ciable degree.
But the entire outlook is not
bleak, says Labor Secretary Mau
rice J. Tobin. 'In some localities,
the South Atlantic coast among
them, the job situation is grow
ing better "in the long run.
Our economy is so strong and
prosperous that the long-range
growth possibilities are limit
less," he asserts.
"Nevertheless," he warns, "on
the average, this year's graduates
will have td hunt longer and
harder than their immediate
predecessors before they find the
jobs they want."
The University Placement Ser
vice is ready and willing to lis
ten to the troubles of graduates
and help place them in their
chosen fields, wherever openings
are available. One of the services
of the Placement Office is to
take every senior's qualifica
tions and have them ready at
all times for prospective em
ployers.
During the year, upperclass-
nieii have been advised to stop
by the office and fill out a place
nient form, for ready job refer
t nee. Response to this aid has
not been too heavy.
The job outlook is clouded by
three factors, the labor secretary
ays. One is the large number
of graduates seeking jobs; the
second a moderate increase in the
total number f unemployed per
sons; and the filling of war-created
shortages of college gradu
ates in some specialized fields by,
up until then, record graduat
ing classes of 194S and 1949.
Mo-t of the openings, he states,
v. ill occur in the large industries
und the areas where there are
now tlie heaviest concentrations
of employment. The jobs filled
will be, as usual, those which . possibility 6f ; graduate training
have been vacated by other work
ers. Deaths and retirements from
the top of the occupational lad
der, he says, create the largest
number of openings at the bottom.
Employment on the West Coast,
the South . Atlantic region and
Texas is growing more rapidly
than in others, he claims.
Graduates trained in the ad
vertising field and those with
sales ability will find opportuni
ties more easily than others. So
will those who are planning to
enter the teaching profession.
There is at this time, he says,
an acute shortage of personnel
in the elementary schools and
a growing oversupply at the high
school level.
For the current school year,
only one elementary teacher was
trained for every three who were
needed. On the other hand, he
says, four times as many stu
dents required completed train
ing for high school teaching.
Stiff competition is expected
in law, journalism and person
nel work in the next few years.
Engineering will - probably be a
tightly closed field until after
the next four or five years. In
chemistry, competition will "be
keen," he predicts, for the next
few years among persons without
graduate training.
There ' will probably be an
oversupply or business adminis
tration graduates, the labor sec
retary declares. Already a sur
plus has developed in the field of
accounting.
On the other hand, according
to the secretary's report, good
prospects are foreseen in health
service occupations: nurses, doc
tors, dentists, pharmacists, vet-
eranerians, medical X-ray tech
nicians, dental hj gienists, physi
cal therapists and dietitians..
to' equip themselves with more
specialized fields." '.
It all boils down to the fact
that the nce-classy A.B. or B.S.
degrees " are not what they used
to be. College degrees today have
been relegatd to -the position of
importance that high school di
plomas enjoyed some 10 years
ago.
The labor department added
that about 1,750.000 persons are
entering the labor market each
year. That means that more than
a third of all 1950 job-seekers
will own college degrees. Fact
of the matter is, the number of
graduates this year from colleges
is about the same as the number
of high school graduates in 1920.
In 1951, colleges will graduate
somewhat fewer students, but
only due to the drop in veterans
enrolling "on the G. I. BilL The
veteran enrollment, estimated by
the VA, will drop 200,000 from
the 900,000 of last fall.
'But the U. S. Department of
Education says enough non-veterans
may go to college to com
pensate for the veteran loss. The
expected drop should be no more
than one per cent, the depart
ment says.
