The Younger Scholars Program will award up to 100 grants nationally for outstand- ing research and writing pro- jects in such fields as history, philosophy and the study of = literature. These projects will be carried out during the sum- mer of 1985. The application deadline is September 15, 1984. Award recipients will be ex- pected to work full-time for nine weeks during the summer, researching and writing a humanities paper under the close supervision of a humanities scholar.

Orange Julius Granite Run Mall Upper Level College Recruiting Picks Up With Economy But Employers Holding Line On Salaries BETHLEHEM, PA -— spring begins to burgeon, so too do the nation’s hopes for the economy. Despite some con- cerns, the consensus of businesses indicates a generally positive outlook for the re- mainder of 1984. Expectations are that inflation will remain relatively low, the GNP will continue to grow, and many companies will show significant profits. In short, the overall pic- ture is much brighter than a year ago, when America wondered whether the recession had finally ended. One by-product of the economic recovery is an up- swing in college recruiting ac- tivity. According to many placement directors, the number of employers interview- ing on campus has increased; in some cases, interview schedules are full. Likewise, employers report that competition for students is heightening as the recruiting year progresses. One significant difference in this upturn, compared with previous increases in college recruiting activity, is that start- ing salary offers are remaining fairly stable. The College Place- ment Council's March 1984 Salary Survey report shows only slight upward movement. According to CPC, employers have indicated several reasons for this trend. First, with infla- tion apparently under control, employers feel less pressure to escalate salaries. Second, com- panies just pulling out of lean times are unwilling or unable to increase starting rates. They also recognize that there is a pool of new graduates anxious for jobs. This year’s graduates, having witnessed the effects of the recession on recent classmates, have more modest expectations. They seem to feel that things are good, but not that good — at least not yet. And, while they see activity picking up, most are not willing to press their luck. Third, many employers still remember the problems of in- ternal salary compression that they struggled with during the years of spiraling increases in starting rates, and none are - anxious to face those problems again. Therefore, most are com- mitted, at least in the short term, to holding the line on starting salaries. When employers do talk of possible salary increases, their projections through the end of the year are between 3 percent and 6 percent. That train of thought is supported by the “data in this report. Averages in six disciplines at the bachelor’s level are still below the July figures. However, a number of disciplines have inched up slightly since the beginning of the year. As For example, in the December report, accounting posted a 2.7 percent gain over July’s figure. This has grown to 3.6 percent for a monthly average of $1,622. Measured gains also have been reported in some engineering salaries. Although averages in several of the limited-volume categories, such as geological engineering, min- . ing engineering, and petroleum engineering, have actually dropped since July, others are slightly ahead and continue to creep up as the year progresses. Increases in engineering ranged from less than 1 percent to 6.5 percent. As usual, petroleum engineer- ing drew the highest salary of- fer — $2,528 per month. However, hit hard by the downturn in the oil industry, the average is still below the July figure of $2,568. On the other hand, this may be a brighter year for chemical engineers. After slipping in the December report, chemical engineering regained its tradi- tional second-place position in the January report and remains in that spot in this report. The volume of offers in this category is up significantly . since the January report and the average salary, which was below the July figure at that time, has now moved up to $2,273, a 2 percent increase over the July figure. The three business disciplines each received significantly more job offers, compared with this time last year. And each in- creased in salary average, with increases ranging from 1 per- cent to 4 percent. Computer science recorded a major in- crease in reported job offers and a monthly salary average of $2,004, up 3.3 percent since July. Repeating the pattern observed at the bachelor’s level, the number of offers increased dramatically in most of the graduate programs, but start- ing salaries in more than half of the programs are below the closing offers in the July survey. Those categories . re- porting increases g eraly made gains of just anger 2 pet: cent to 8.3 percent. Data for the College Place- ment Council’s Salary Survey are based on offers, not accep- tances, made" to college graduates in selected curricula. Data are submitted by 187 placement offices at the 162 participating colleges and universities. The March 1984 Salary Survey is based on offers reported between September 1, 1983 and March 2, 1984, and is available only to members of the College Placement Council, Inc. and subscribers to the Salary Survey.
