the applicants. His choice is
made only on background
and skills. The selected
applicants are then sent an
invitation via the computer
to call the officer for an
interview. Since the
applicant has detailed in the
resume the job character
istics he or she demands,
they know that the position
offered meets or exceed
those demands.
The one tiem total charge
to the applicant for twelve
full months of exposure is
only $25.00. This is the only
fee the student pays and the
employer will pay no fee; the
only expense to the em
ployer will be computer time
to look at resumes. The
charge for this should
average less than a small
want ad in the local
newspaper.
An Open Letter to the
Student Body,
Recently, computer ex
perts have devised a system
that will expose student
applications for employment
to over twenty thousand
employers from coast to
coast and twenty foreign
countries.
The concept is very
simple. A large number of
companies find it convenient
to lease computer time for
their own use (called time
sharing or remote batch
usage) from computer ser
vice companies set up for
just this purpose. Through
computer terminals in their
offices, they have access to
a fantastic amount of
knowledge and service at
very inexpensive rates. As a
matter of fact, virtually all of
the Fortune Top 1300
companies are either ven
dors or user.
Through the use of
extremely thorough and
complete resumes, Ameri
can Personnel Systmes
Corporation is forming the
most complete and exten
sive personnel bank in
history. This data bank is
being made available to
every corporation with a
terminal facility. All major
vendors of computer time,
including General Electric,
University Computing, Con
trol Data Corporation, United
Computing, Service Bureau
Corporation, McDonnel
Douglas, and others, have

Dear Representative.
As a student at Penn State University, I j
am concerned about the proposed rise* ini
tuition for next year, an expected $l5O. In
crease in total college expenses for 75-76
academic year is predicted. This increase \
will present an extreme financial burden on J
myself and my family. Last year there was a 1
$9O. tuition increase, and if tuition goes up \
again, this year, especially with the present J
economic crisis, it may be difficult for me tovj
complete my education. j
Governor Shapp’s budget proposal for
Penn State is far below the amount
requested by my university. If the univ**- '
doesn’t get the money it need 1
dents will have to pay the differei
ference that many of us cannot
would be tragic if even one
forced to drop out of school bi
tuition that is too high in a st
university. Students’ futures are
so i urge you to please vote the r
funds for Penn State in order to
tuition increase.
