perhaps it already has had the

WDFM Plans
Students Should Consult
Placement Service--Leetch
More students should take advantage of the jobs made available
to them through the University placement Service—a greater num
ber of jobs this year than ever before—according to George N. P.
Leetch, director of the University Placement Service.
For example, of the 74 students who graduated in Liberal Arts
last semester, only 18 had had at least one interview, Leetch said.
One student had had six inter
views, and this was the most tak
en by any one student, he said.
With the number of companies
represented last year each student
had the opportunity to take 15
or 20 interviews, he added.
Students in technical courses
are more occupation-minded than
non-technical students and more
of them take advantage of the
opportunities provided by the
employment service, Leetch said.
He said he realized that many
men will be going into the armed
services after graduation and
therefore facing an uncertain in
tdre right now.
Last year• 128 men who grad
uated entered the military ser
vices immediately, and within
six months most graduates fol
lowed suit.
It is a good plan for graduates
to work before they are drafted,
Leetch said, even if it is only for
a few weeks. This would give
them, an idea of what they would
like to do after their term in the
service, he said. Seventy-five pet'
cent of the companies want to
talk to students regardless of
draft, and the other twenty-five
per cent want personnel to fill
jobs now, he said.
A report given to the Daily
Collegian by Leetch shows that
graduates of the geophysics and
geochemistry departments of the
College of Mineral Industries
earned the highest beginning sal
aries. Graduates of the chemistry
department earned the second
highest beginning salary, and
third were the members of the
chemical engineering department,
both the latter departments of
the College of Chemistry and
Physics.
However, there is little correla
tion between later financial suc
cess and the curriculum a student
was enrolled in college, Leetch
said.
The report, which contained the
salaries and jobs 'of 69 per cent
of last year's graduating class,
shows that the average monthly

beginning salary earned by last
year's graduates was men-4345
and women , -4225.
Most students would be sur
prised to know that companies
such as the General Motors Co.
hire many graduates of non-tech
nical curriculums. Last year' that
company hired 300 graduates of
non-technical courses.
Leetch said that more graduates
will be better satisfied with their
jobs if they talk to the various
company representatives when
they visit campus.
This semester representatives
of approximately 300 companies
will visit the campus. Visits will
be announced in the Daily Col
legian.
