OCCUPY
SPACE?
To the Editor,
The following is a response to
an article written by Bob
Bonaker in last week's
Capitolist. The article dealt on
Mr. Paul and his role on the
campus.
Lately the question of
security personnel not having to
obtain a search warrant in order
to enter a house has caused some
concern. Part of Mr. Dressler's
response was that "students are
not actually renting their houses.
They are paying to occupy
SPACE; a bed." Random House
Dictionary defines space as "the
unlimited or indefinitely great
three-dimensional expanse in
which all material objects are
located and all events occur."
Is that what students are
paying $lBO a term for? If this
article seems stupid, then Mr.
Dressler's response was certainly
not much better.
Students should be given
intelligent answers to their
questions and not un-academic
answers such as the one noted
above. I think that we deserve
more consideration than we have
been given.

From the main building go
past the apartments and out the
main gate until you reach Route

until you hit the first stop light
at the bridge. Cross the bridge
and keep to the right until you
reach the gates to the base and
from there you will be able to
see it. The building is located on
the corners of Ann and Chapel.
REMEMBER, be there at 6 p.m.

Reflections
`Combat
Zone'
To the Editors
I would like to commend Ms.
Boswell on her article COMBAT
ZONE in the CAPITOLIST of
January 25. Her reporting of the
change in Office of Student
Affairs was an informative piece
to the students at Capitol.
Since this is a free country in
the voicing of opinions I feel
that there should be some
critizing of her reporting.
As a reporter I believe there is
an unwritten rule that the
reporting should be done upon
the fairest terms and that it
should be unbiased. Ms. Boswell
does attempt to demonstrate her
rules of the game, but she did
place terms which would lead
the reader to believe that her
article was a gossip sheet instead
of an article for the newspaper.
The main term that I believe was
her error was "vibes." This word
is an expression of emotions and
a slight hint to gossip rather than
facts.
Good reporting should be
based upon both facts and a
little insight; but when it turns
to "vibes" than that is the end
of good unbiased reporting. I
a m sure that the editor of the
paper will back Ms. Boswell's
opinion and reporting, but that
still leaves me and any other
student of Capitol Campus to
express his/her opinions on any
article or event that may have an
influence to the campus
community.

Condolences
We have learned that Mr.
Paul's mother-in-law died
last week.
The staff of The
Capitolist expressed
sympathy to Mr. Paul and
his family, and we are sure
we speak for all of the
Capitol Campus
community.

Job Market
Improving
(CPS) -- College graduates
may no longer be threatened
with the possibility of
unemployment which has faced
them for the past several years.
According to a recent survey
by the College Placement
Council, a Pennsylvania-based
nonprofit organization,
employment of college graduates
increased by 6 percent last year.
It is the first time in three years
that an upward trend has been
noted.
The employers surveyed
reported that 47,600 graduates
were hired as compared to the
45,000 hired the previous year.
In 1969-1970 there were 70,000
college graduates hired.
The survey found that the
openings made most available to
graduates were in merchandising,
federal government, public
accounting, banking, finance,
insurance, chemicals and drugs,
and state and local government.
The biggest percentage boosts
in hiring activity were in
research and consulting--88
percent, chemicals and drugs--52
percent, aerospace--43 percent,
public accounting-- 37 percent,
electrical machinery--32 percent,
building materials and
construction-- 27 percent.
Employment prospects for
graduating engineers are getting
brighter, says William M. Kays,
dean of Stanford University's
School of Engineering, and there
may be a severe shortage of
engineers by 1976, when
demand may double the supply.
Kays noted that the publicity
given engineering unemployment
continues to affect enrollments
across the U.S. To counter the
effects of such publicity, the
Stanford Engineering School,
under Kays' direction, has begun
a campaign to attract students to
the profession.
