But it’s still big, particularly in the kinds of jobs for guys and girls who need to make some bread between June and September. This is the summer job market for positions with Federal departments and agencies, which include anything from being a lifeguard with the National Park Service to a geologist with the Bureau of Mines. Most of these jobs are filled through the Office of Personnel Management (formerly the Civil Service Commission), which has regional offices across the nation. A nationwide survey conducted by Federal Jobs, for the particular benefit of collegian jobseekers, shows that Uncle Sam, responding to President Reagan’s drive to cut back on Big Government, has pared the number of job availabilities for this summer considerably, sometimes by as much as 50 percent in some regions. That’s the bad news. The good news. Federal Jobs found out, is that the kinds of jobs left, around 10,000 nationwide (excluding special programs for minorities), are ideal for college men and women. Federal Jobs, a biweekly newspaper devoted to listings of jobs available in the Federal government sector, is out now with its Annual Summer Jobs Issue, listing thousands of opportuni ties state by state. Federal Jobs also gives tips and detailed explanations on how to apply for them and otherwise find your way through the bureaucratic labyrinth. Job recruiters at 0PM regional offices told Federal Jobs that most cutbacks are of middle-level jobs; typically, administrative positions which wouldn’t be filled by collegiansr anyway. But there is still a heavy demand for people who can type, file GREEK STEP SHOW 8:00 p.m. A Reminder from SELECTIVE SERVICE If you are a male citizen, or alien residing in the U.S., you must register with Selective Service within 30 days of your 18th birthday.

Coed Visitation Begins From Page 2 awakening coed program have been argued about in the past, as well as the present. The rules were made by the students of WSSU in 1974 and endors ed by the Board of Trustees. “Students nor faculty can change the rules without starting at the top,” stated Benson. Benson feels that coed visita tion rules are subject to change only if the students deal with them positively. Coed visitation is an evolutionary pro ject. There will be no giant steps,” stated Benson.
