University students from across the
country including two from UNC
discussed proposed budget cuts in higher
education, racial intolerance and student-faculty
interaction at a recent con
ference of the American Association of
University Students.
Dennis Whittle, chairperson of the
Student Government Academic Proce
dures Committee and Maria Baxter,
chairperson of the SG Educational
Policy Committee, attended the March
31-April 4 Fourth Intercollegiate Con
ference at the University of Pennsyl
vania along with students from other
large private and public universities in
the U.S. and Canada to discuss ongoing
problems concerning the schools. This
Job market
By SONYA WEAKLEY
SVff Writer
For most UNC seniors, May brings gradua
tion and all its celebrations and festivities. But
after all the excitement dies down, .what's
next? For those who are not lucky enough to
go into business with Dad or who just didn't
get that big interview with the recruiter, the job
hunt begins.
Finding that job may not be too easy this
year. Unless you majored in engineering, com
puter science or another technical field, don't
expect employers to come looking for you,
University placement officials say.
"It's more competive this year," said
Thomas Luten, associate director for the
University Placement Service. "Candidates
that employers would have considered two
years ago won't be considered today because
they're seeing better candidates."
Luten called the job market today a
"buyer's market." Because of better-qualified
applicants and fewer openings due to the
economic downswing, employers are being
more selective.
But graduates with technical degrees are not
the only ones with good potentials.
"Recruiters are looking more at the liberal
arts majors this year," Luten said. "Because

was the first time UNC was represented
at the conference.
The AAUS was organized in 1978 by
Leonard Ginsberg, a 1980 graduate of
the University of Pennsylvania, to pro
vide an information exchange between
the eight Ivy League schools, Stanford
University and the University of
Chicago. The group now includes about
50 participating universities, including
two from Canada.
The schools choose those issues they
feel are important to confront, and the
AAUS decides on the most pertinent
issues to be discussed at the conference,
said National Chairperson Michael
Finkelstein. The delegates examined
problems prevalent at participating uni
versities and shared problem-solving
methods effective for their respective
schools.
is more competitive this year
of the top-ranked business administration
school here, we get a lot of calls for business
majors, but they (recruiters) have been more
willing to take a liberal arts major."
Luten advised anyone interested in the
business field who will be getting a general
degree to emphasize business, economics, ac
counting, or managerial finance courses that
he or she might have taken. It has recently
become important in the business field to be
able to communicate and write, he added.
English, radio, television and motion pictures,
political science and other communications
majors may have an advantage because of the
writing experience, he said.
Pat Carpenter, an associate director for the
placement service, advised liberal arts majors
to "sit down and analyze their experiences."
Many liberal arts majors may feel they do
not have the skills for a certain job because
they do not have that specific degree,
Carpenter said. What they do not realize is
that they may have acquired the needed skill
through experience, she said. They can then
emphasize the skill, use it in an interview and
come across better than someone with a degree
in that area.
Employers look for more than just a
business administration degree," Carpenter
said. "They look for how well you can ar
ticulate your skills."

AAUS presented model programs to
"encourage students from other uni
versities to establish them if they have
need," said Finkelstein, a senior at the
University of Pennsylvania. U.S. Sen.
Alan Cranston, D-Calif., was among
the public officials who spoke at the
various workshops.
' "It became clear to us that the Rea
gan administration is very ambitious
about financial aid cuts," Whittle said
about a speech by an official from the
U.S. Department of Education. They
think students can get jobs to pay for
their education, Baxter said.
Whittle and Baxter both attended
workshops that dealt with their respec
tive Student Government committees.
Whittle said he attended a session on
sophomore advising presented by
Brown University in an attempt to "get
Both Luten and Carpenter stressed the need
for students to separate themselves, find some
quality about themselves to emphasize that
others may not have.
"Find a way to stand out from the thunder
ing herd7" Luten said.
"Show enthusiasm and energy," Carpenter
said. "Students don't get this across very well.
The more you know about a job and an
organization, the more enthusistic you'll
seem."
The best way to learn about jobs is to set up
"information interviews" during your junior
year, Luten said.
"Find out what they do, get background,
ask what courses you should be taking, who
else you can talk to," he said. "Ask them if

He also attended a session on a pre
freshman weekend for black students
and compared it to the University's Pre
Orientation program. PreyOrientation
allows black freshmen to arrive at the
University two days before other fresh
men in an attempt to familiarize them
with UNC and its cultural organiza
tions. Whittle said there was some
criticism that the program discouraged
integration. But Pre-Orientation is an
important program, he added. "We see

you will be far ahead xf the student who just

Starting salaries are higher this year, accor
ding to a reqent study conducted by researchers
at Northwestern University. For engineering
majors, starting salaries can go as high as
$25,000. Chemists may start at $18,000, while
computer scientists can start at $22,000. Sales
and marketing bachelors could expect salaries
up to $17,500. Accounting majors could start
at $18,300, faie study states.
Lowest starting salaries $14,000 will go
to social science majors. Communications
graduates could start at $15,000, he said.
In order to get a job you need an interview,
and to get an interview you need a good
resume, Luten said. It's one way to help make
yourself stand apart, he added.

Egg hunt promises fun for kids z
includes activities for family too
By SONJf A PAYTON
Staff Writer
Chapel Hill's annual Easter Egg Hunt
and Celebration will include three
"Golden Eggs," and any lucky hunter
who finds one will receive a $50 savings
bond.
Children in three age groups will have
the chance to find the golden eggs this
Saturday at 1 1 : 1 5 a.m. But the egg hunt is
not just for children this year.
There will also be a Family Scavenger
Hunt for older egg-finding lovers, and en
tertainment by local artists.
"We are trying to center it so that it
won't be just an egg hunt, but something
the whole family can enjoy," said Shirley
Harper, program coordinator for the
Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation De
partment. Harper said the scavenger hunt is not
limited to actual families but can be done
by a group of friends. Older egg hunters
will be attracted to the entertainment fea
tured, she said.
Clown Extraordinaire from Raleigh
will entertain the audience with magic.

The extravaganza begins at 9 a.m. at j
Cedar Falls Park on Weaver Dairy Road
and will last until noonl This is the fourth ;
egg hunt, and according to Harper, it will j
probably be the best because of the enter-
tainment and prizes. This is also the first j
year the event has been carried out in ;
cooperation with McDonald's, the dona- j
tors of the Easter Egg Tree, a tree hung
with prizes. j
"Last year we had about 1,000 or so I
kids," Harper said. "We hope to have I
1,000 or more this year."
Harper thinks the entertainment and j
the prizes will probably attract more peo- I
pie. . .
Children will be divided into three age
groups for the egg hunts, with a golden
egg worth $50 hidden in each event. In
addition, 15 of the eggs will be specially
marked and will be worth smaller prizes.
Harper invited students to come to the
park and enjoy the hunt or to come and
help hide the eggs.
The egg hunt is being sponsored by the
Chapel Hill-Carrboro and Orange County
Parks and Recreation Departments, in
cooperation with McDonald's.
