“The rationale for any major or
ganization to be located on the coast
was to be near commerce and big
banks,” Hallett said.
However, progress made in tele
communications and fiberoptics in
recent years has had a tremendous
impact on the manner in which busi
ness is transacted, Hallett said.
“One can now conduct one’s busi
ness from anywhere,” he said.
•The cost of living in the Midwest
is lower than that on the coasts, prompt

“As young as the kids are, they
pick up on things very easily and
know more than you think they do,”
she said.
Pickering said the center is better
in structuring children’s activities than
other child-care centers.
“I like the way they handle the
kids,” she said. “They just don’t let
them play like at other centers. They
actually have planned activities for
them.”
Donna Maranville, a kindergarten
teacher at the center, stressed the
benefits of incorporating university
students into the kindergarten pro
gram and into other programs at the
the future of the Midwest region.
“It will dominate the demographic
growth of people and the economic
growth of the nation for the next 20
years,” he said.
A study released by Arizona State
University in recent weeks found that
Nebraska experienced the highest
percentage of job growth in the na
tion last year. Between June 1990 and
June 1991, Nebraska had an increase
of 4.73 percent, or 34,000 jobs.
The city of Omaha also ranked
second in the nation in terms of the
percentage of job growth last year,
according to the study. Nebraska’s
largest city experienced a growth of
5.16 percent, 17,000 new jobs.
Larry Routh, director of Career
Planning and Placement at the Uni
versity of Nebraska-Lincoln, attrib
uted Nebraska’s job growth in part to
the fact that Nebraska was not af
fected by the slump in defense con
center.
“Most of them are very dedicated,
and they have lots of enthusiasm,”
she said. “You just don’t see that at
other centers.”
Students benefit by gaining valu
able experience and by having a place
to work, Maranville said. And, she
said, the location of the center is
fairly close to campus.
Although parental fees and uni
versity funding keeps the program
running, Maranville said the center
does not have a lot of materials to
work with.
“The university just doesn’t have
that kind of money,” she said.
However, the enthusiasm of the
teachers, UNL students, and children
make the funding shortages just a
little easier to take, she said.

economies.
He also said that agribusiness, much
of which is based in Nebraska, is
experiencing relatively good times.
Despite the job increase, Routh
was quick to put the numbers in per
spective.
“While there is job growth here, it
isn’t an open market,” he said. “There
are a lot of people that want to be here
(in Nebraska). It’s still very competi
tive.”
Recent activity in UNL’s Career
Planning and Placement office ap
pears to support Halletl’s claims on
the movement to the Midwest. Routh
said UNL graduates who live in coastal
cities have called his office and are
interested in moving back to Nebraska.
Most of those requesting informa
tion cited the stale’s quality of life
and educational system as incentives
for returning, Routh said.
