Overflow of Jobs Greets Engineers at Commencement
19. *Uses Have Beer*
Refusing Offers From
Big Firms for
Six Weeks
"Wanted: More senior engineers to fill the jobs offered." Figuratively this is the sign hung up at the School of Engineering. Letters inquiring for men to fill positions have been pouring in for weeks since all the men were recruited. The new engineering have been placed," according to Prof. Geo, C. Shaad.
"We could place three times the number of men who are graduating," he said. "For six weeks we have had to turn down letters of inquiry." The three men, same as the other engineering company, will have all been placed satisfactorily.
The majority of the graduates are entering large manufacturing plants, Professor Shand explained. Many of them are responsible for greater responsibility. The General Electric, Westinghouse and Western Electric companies will absorb a large number of the electrical graduates to be employed at other types of work.
While salaries some of the new men will draw are not large, all will receive a living wage. Professor M. Brown is between $110 and $140 a month.
