Job offers for graduates
up 46 per cent this year
by Nancy Stohs
Most graduating UNL seniors holding
their breath for job offers can put their
worries partly to rest. By 46 per cent, to be
exact.
That's the percentage increase in job
offers over January 1972 for bachelor's
degree graduation candidates, according to
UNL Placement Director Frank Hallgren.
That figure comes from a national survey by
the College Placement Council.
The volume for master's degree
candidates is up 44 per cent, Hallgren said.
The only decline is at the doctoral level,
where job offers are down seven per cent,
the survey indicated.
Hallgren said the study included job
offers made only to male students through
mid-December at 148 colleges and
universities.
Job offers are most promising for
bachelor degree candidates in accounting.
Offers are up 74 per cent from a year ago,
according to the survey.
Students looking for a bachelor's degree
in the humanities and social sciences,
however, face a 34 per cent decrease in job
offers nationally.
In the engineering field, only aeronautics
shows no increase. Total job offers at the
bachelor's level are the highest in three
years. On the master's level, offers are the
highest in five years.
Job prospects for master's degree
candidates in engineering are 73 per cent
more than a year ago. Students seeking a
master's in business administration are
getting 23 per cent more offers.
Salary increases, however, continue to be
modest. Starting salaries at the bachelor's
degree level appear highest for chemical,
electrical and mechanical engineering,
followed by accounting and general business.
At the master's level, business administration
attracted the highest starting salaries.

Departments investigate
birth aid refusal charge
Investigations have been launched by two departments into
reports that the University Health Center refused to help a
coed who gave birth in a dormitory restroom Jan. 24.
Richard Armstrong UNL ector of housing, and Dr. Sam
Fuenning, health center director, said the investigations have
begun.
UNL sources say two telephone calls were made to the
health center requesting emergency service but both requests
were refused. The coed and baby were later taken by
ambulance to a Lincoln hospital. Both were reported in good
condition.
Fuenning acknowledged that two calls requesting
emergency aid were received by the health center. Oie came
to a doctor and the other to a nurse, he said.
He said a preliminary investigation revealed that both
callers were instructed to contact a city ambulance to take the
woman and baby to a city hospital. He said most emergency
calls get the same response.
The housing office is conducting an investigation also, but
Armstrong declined to discuss it.
