Ten \ Students
In Accounting
Sign Contracts
Under th e accounting intern
ship program, ten accounting stu
dents at the College have re
cently signed employment con
tracts to work for the first half
of the i r eighth semester with
public accounting firms.
Students who will work are
Fred Brahler, Michael Chaffier,
Ralph Cosgrove, Julian Gordon,
Elmer Loisch, Phil Lurie, Ber
nard •Pollack, Jo an Puchalski,
Donald Reese, and Charles
Schutte.
The salary for internship - jobs
is approximately $250 a month.
This is slightly less than the pay
that a college graduate starting
in accounting receives, Kenneth
Nelson, accounting professor in
charge of the program, said.
• New York, Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, and Chicago are the cities
in which Students are signed to
wo r k.
The accounting internship pro
gram, set up at the College last
year, was one of the first such
programs •in the country. "No
college had such a program in
operation before last year to our
knowledge," Nelson said.
This project was' started so that
students might have an oppor
tunity to apply their theoretical
knowledge to actual accounting
practice. CPA firms are enthu
siastic about hiring students from
the program, Nelson said.
The winter internship program
is largely confined to public ac
counting jobs, while the summer
program is primarily for indus
trial and governmental jobs.
Fourteen students participated
in last year's winter and summer
internship programs.
Students desiring to participate
in this program fill out applica
tions at the time of pre-registra
tion for the second semester of
their junior year or /before. Ad
vance planning of course sche
dules is-necessary to get into this
program, for no normal gradua
tion requirements are waived to
permit the acceptance of an in
ternship job.
Firms desiring to employ stu
dents through this program inter,-
view students at the College.
