STATISTICS ON JOB SURVEYRELEASED TV A Co-operated With Bureau Of Vocational Information in Valuable Research. The Bureau of Vocational In formation has recently complet- ea a aepression survey in con junction with the Tennessee Valley Authority. The survey has attempted to find out the ef feet the depression has had on the occupational and educational status of students recently leav ing the University. From questionnaires sent to 2,793 students of the classes of lyiJU, '31, "62, and 66, it was found that 101 are at present unemployed. Of these, 36 were working for the CWA and three m yuu. camps, me, survey aiso showed that the tendency for unemployment predominated among those students who had left the University most recent ly. Sixty-two percent of the grad uates, were reported as working! in fields of their "special interest, but the survey also showed that the most recent graduates were having the most trouble getting into their special fields of inter est. The survey also showed that the highest incomes were earn ed by those graduates managing filling stations, but the authori ties say this figure is not quite as reliable as the others because the former students had shown hesitancv m statiner their in comes.
