"It's going to include seven what

ACADEMICS
Job market
leads many
students to
grad school
Experts say most
students won't have
secured positions
By AMRUTHA SIVAKUMAR
DailyStaffReporter
As the senior-year blues
hits, the question comes tum-
bling right behind: What next?
While many, may consider
graduate school, an advanced
degree may not be for every-
one.
Louise Jackson, career coor-
dinator for the Alumni Asso-
ciation, classifies Michigan
undergraduates into three
categories: students taking a
gap-year between undergradu-
ate and graduate degrees, stu-
dents with secured job prior to
graduation and those who plan
to go to graduate school.
However, those with
secured positions tend to be
in the minority, Jackson said.
When asked whether or not
master's programs are com-
monly needed by students
pursuing professional under-
graduate degrees such as a
Bachelor of Business Adminis-
tration degree, Jackson said it

Taylor shares his
story at leadership
conference
By ARIANA ASSAF
Daily StaffReporter
On Saturday afternoon,
about 100 undergraduate stu-
dents and University employ-
ees gathered in Couzens
Residence Hall for the Student
Housing Leadership Confer-
ence featuring speeches from
University administrators and
Michigan football legend Billy
Taylor.

E. Royster Harper, the
University's vice president of
student affairs, presented the
"Connecting the Dots" theme
of the conference, referenc-
ing the future implications of
present decisions.
Harper went on to intro-
duce Taylor, followed by a
preview for "Perseverance,"
a movie biography about his
life and battle with alcohol-
ism. Following the film, Taylor
explained how these experi-
ences helped mold him into
who he is today.
Taylor was a football legend
at Michigan, as the All Time U
of M record holder for average

rushing yards per game at 102
yards, a three-time All-Ameri-
can Running Back and Michi-
gan's MVP in 1971, according
to his website.
However, his life went on
a downward spiral on Jan. 4,
1972. Just a few days after his
final game as a Wolverine, his
mother passed away from a
heart attack.
"All I could do was cry,"
Taylor said. "It really knocked
me down."
Taylor said he sunk into
depression, but attended the
Atlanta Falcon's training camp
