    , Qets openings from employers
Center offers aid to job seekers
Rooking for a summer job is
a job in itself, and a tedious,
frustrating one at that. But
fof students needing fall’s,
tuttion or fun money for
suinmer activities, finding a
jo'6 is a necessary evil.
The Student Employment
Cefotbr at 105 Bouckc is
designed to make the hunting
just a bit easier.
{“The center receives job
openings from both on- and
offcampus employers. Some
of! the off-campus positions
ar{? located within walking
distance of campus and
others are accessible by bus.
At{ times the employers will
provide transportation, as in
th 4 case of babysitting,” Beth
Thjomas (lOth-management),
a center employee, said.
She said the center has no
“typical” position hut gets a
wide range of requests. “One
request last year was for a go- ■

Court halts
fund denial
PHILADELPHIA (AP) A
federal appeals court on
Tuesday rejected Penn
sylvania’s latest effort to
withhold Social Security and
other retirement benefits
from patients in state mental
hospitals.
j The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court
j of Appeals said Dist. Court
' Judge Edward Becker was
, right when he refused to
- entertain a state motion to
, halt the fund transfers, now
about 20 per cent complete.
! The ruling stems from a
suit filed in July 1973 by
Elvira Vecchione, then a
: patient at the Byberry State
| Hospital, a mental institution
■j in Philadelphia.
| Ms. Vecchione claimed that
‘ withholding funds from
.patients who had not been
' judged mentally incompetent
by a court violated constitu
' tional guarantees against
* illegal search and seizure.

tavern. They were paying
something like fifty dollars a
night,” Thomas said.
Nevertheless, center em
ployee Jeff Dressier
(graduate-recreation and
parks) said that kind of
money is rare.
“The old theory of supply
and demand holds so true
here. An ’ employer can
quickly replace someone
barking about low pay in a
day,” Dressier said.
He said job seekers should
come to the center and check
listings of openings, then
contact the employers on
their own.
“Another thing we suggest
you do is just knock on em
ployers’ doors. The em
ployers do not have to come

individual that relies solely on
us could be missing out with
those employers that don’t
contact us,” Dressier said.
Thomas said the University
also has positions open that
the center isn’t told about, so
students should contact
dining halls. Various
departments have work-study
positions, she said, but the
applicant must be eligible for
financial aid.
“What the individual does is
apply at the department of his
choosing. A work-study in
one’s major can mean
valuable bucks,” she said.
The center also has in
formation on how to write
resumes and prepare for
interviews, Thomas said.

a division of Bumble Bee
Employment Division in 117
Willard. The division usually
refers part-time applicants to
the Boucke center because it
primarily seeks full-time
employees. The division
suggests students apply a few
months before graduation.
The Pennsylvania State
Employment Service, 112 W.
Foster Ave., locates jobs for

ployment agencies charge a

to the applicant who gets the
job.
Job-hunting is often
demeaning, occasionally
maddening and always
tiresome. But agencies do
exist skilled in helping the
seeker find the sought after
jobs, leaving that elusive
element of luck to the Fates.
