RECESSION HURTS STUDENTS
Summer jobs hard to find

By DAN GRANTHAM
If you're looking for a job this summer, there's only
one comforting thought - you're not alone.
Michigan's unemployment figures may be getting
better, hut it isn't any easier for students to, find
work this summer, according to weary job hunters
and area business people.
"EVEN IN MY field, that's supposed to he open,
it's hard to get part-time work," said computer
science major Larry Kahn, who has joined the ranks
of students searching the bulletin board at the
University's Student Employment Office for job op-
portunities.
But the office doesn't receive a full listing of job

openings at the University, so it is up to students to do
their own searching, said Student Employment Of-
fice Director Vivian Hoey.
"The Student Employment office receives some
postings for off-campus and on-campus jobs, but en-
courages students to be more aggressive in their ap-
proach," Hoey said.
BEING MORE aggressive includes going straight
to the departments or talking to professors to find
openings, she says.
Traditional student employers such as the
libraries, the University Hospital, and the grounds
maintenance division of the plant department say
they have already filled their summer positions.

Some, like the plant department, have felt the budget
cutting axe. "We're not hiring as many as we usually
do because of the financial cuts," says Bob Han-
selman, a grounds division foreman.
But students who turn to the streets of Ann Arbor
for jobs won't find much better conditions in the real
world.
WHILE FIGURES show that unemployment in
Michigan decreased 1.5 percent between March and
April, area businesses are still feeling the economic
pinch - they've kept their same staff for the winter
or simply increased working hours instead of hiring
new help.

Velvet-robed people muttering middle-English verse rehearsed outside the
Frieze building Tuesday. The troop of University students were practicing
their part in a 24-play medieval theater performance in Toronto next week.

The actors will perform the play twice today, at 4:30 at campus Chapel, and
