The first of these is "The Con- temporary Near East," an inte- grated area course which contains a variety of disciplines including PAVEMENT POUNDERS: Survey Reveals Seniors Face Big Job Shortage A large portion of the record-breaking 4,645 University of Michigan graduates who are scheduled to receive their degrees at commence- ment will spend the summer months looking for jobs. The job situation is tighter than at any time since the war and the new alumni may have quite a hunt ahead of them before they find what they are looking for, as indicated by the national job survey published below. * * * <4- -- --- - -- - geography, anthropology, e c o- nomics, sociology, political science, religion, law and fine arts.

This year's Law School Sum- mer Institute will be on "Law State Village To Be Site Of IU'Study A small Michigan town in south- ern Genessee County will be the center of an experiment in social class analysis this summer. For the past two months, a group of graduate students in so- ciology have been collecting data concerning the historical and so- cial setup of Linden. The town was chosen as experimental ground becau~se of its location, off a main highway near Flint, and its man- ageable size. The group, under the direction of Prof. Amos H. Hawley of the sociology department, plans to ap- ply five methods of social class analysis to the village population of about 700 in an attempt to cor- relate methods devised for analyz- ing social strata. The experiment will provide val- uable information for town mer- chants and businessmen and will also aid social welfare groups within the community. Groups PFlan MilitaryTrips Michigan ROTC and NROTC members will join in the Army and Navy programs this summer, de- signed to train these men in ac- tual duty techniques. ROTC men will journey to one of six Eastern camps run in conjunc- tion with the ROTC where they will receive training in such var- ied fields as tactics,'use of techni- c a 1 equipment, communication techniques, and Medical Corps practise.

Students will pursue credit courses at seven other University camps during the summer scattered from Lake Patterson outside Ann Arbor to Ontario, Canada. Archeology, speech, music, art, geography and botany are some of the subjects offered. * * * * * * Summer CampS TO Offer Various Credit.Program University students will pursue their studies in eight summer camps during the 1950 summer session located in different parts of the country from Killarney, Ontario to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Activities will include music, speech improvement, forestry and social work. * * * * GEOLOGY STUDENTS will journey to Camp Davis, Wyoming to study geology and surveying at the foot of the Jackson Hole-Teton Mountains. Archaeological field methods are taught at Camp Killarney in Ontario, Canada. Other University camps include the biological station at Douglas Lake in Cheboygan County, Michigan, which offers a wide variety of courses in botany and zoology, will be pounding the pavements looking for work. AFTER commencement exerci- ses on June 17, the new alumnii will find themselves in a job mar- ket competing with 500,000 other new graduates for the smallest number of available job openings since the war. Other students will desert the campus for The Grand Tour. Many have spent the last few weeks getting their travel inoc- ulations at the Health Service. Faculty men are also surren- dering in wholesale lots to the tra- vel itch. * * * PROF. RUSSELL FIFIELD is already in Japan on the first leg of a flying tour of the Far East. He will shortly leave for South Korea where he has arranged an interview with President Syng- men Rhee. Hle will return to the U.S. by Way of India and the Phillipines. Prof. Harold Dorr will fly to Frankfurt, to act as consultant to the state department on Ger- man affairs. Other faculty members will range as far abroad as Zurich and Egypt in pursuit of further study or on special missions for private and governmental agencies. - * * * WHEN STUDENTS and faculty return to the campus in the fall they will find that an old land- mark has disappeared in their ab- sence. The mosaic University seal, long a campus landmark, will be ripped up along with the steps and side- walk and replaced with concrete, according to Walter M. Roth of the plant department. Will Complete Phoenix Plans Final touches to plans for the gigantic Michigan Memorial-Phoe- nix Project fund drive in the fall will be made this summer by the Project's national publicity com- mittee. The nation-wide campaign to raise $6,500,000 will begin in Oc- tober, and regional chairmen will have to complete details for con- ducting an all out push to obtain pledges then during the summer months. Many Foreign Students Seek Employment A variety of activities will keep the University's foreign students busy this summer. A large number of the students are applying to the Immigration Service for special employment permits, according to Robert Klin- ger, assistant counselor at the In- ternational Center. * * * THE STUDENTS plan to work at everything from camp counsel- ling to road construction. Most of them secure their jobs through the Michigan Employment Service, the Bureau of Appointments, a n d sometimesh even through the em- bassy of their, homeland.- Because so many of the foreign students will be working this sum- mer, a smaller number than before are expected to attend the sum- mer session in ratio to those en- rolled for the spring term, Kling- er said. Some students secure admission to several universities to. assure their coming here, and then make their choice after arrival, he said. "Or they may meet some zealous alumnus of another schoolon the boat and be converted." Some of the students, while not attending the University this sum- mer, will transfer to summer schools on other campuses. Lane Hall Set For Summer Lane Hall will serve as a hot- weather mecca for the religious and recreational activities of sum- muer school students. In co-sponsorship with the Uni- versity, Lane Hall will bring to campus Chancellor T. R. Milford, head of the theological college at Oxford, England, and legal cus- todian of the Magna Carta. Mil- ford will be here July 15 to 22 and will talk on the famous document under his care on July 20. Featured among the regular summer projects of Lane Hall are a series of intercultural retreats. Lane Hall also hopes to hold Saturday luncheon discussions. and Camp Filibert Roth in Iron County at which forestry students gain field experience. * * * A GEOGRAPHY camp is oper- ated in the Upper Peninsula near Seney, and at Shady Trails, speech improvement camp on the shore of Grand Traverse Bay near Northport, impaired speech cases are treated by advanced speech students working under the super- vision of qualified professionals. And at Interlochen, in north- ern Michigan, the University's nationally-known National Mu- sic Camp will throw its doors open to 1,200 students-250 on the college level-who will pur- sue studies in art, drama, dance, music, camp counseling and re- creation. But closest to the hearts of most University students is the Fresh Air Camp. Scene of many a stu- dent picnic and square dance dur- ing the school year it provides a summer of wholesome outdoor life for 240 underprivileged boys. * * * THE BOYS who would not otherwise be able to enjoy a camp- ing experience because of financial difficulties and behavior problems are closely supervised by a group of University students from the education, sociology and psychol- ogy departments working under faculty and professional supervi- sion. Participating students receive University credit for their work and the boys enjoy a sun-filled summer at the camp site on Pat- terson Lake, 17 miles outside Ann Arbor. 1 * .4 By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-The nation's employers will be swamped next month when nearly 500,000 new college graduates start look- ing for jobs. About half these additions to the country's educated elite will be veterans, many of whom held jobs before the war. But neither past job experi- ence norsa degree nor an hon- orable discharge is a pass-key today to a job in professional-, semi-professional or adnini- strmtive fields, the kind most attractive to college graduates. JOB PReOSPECTS Ewan Cleague, commissioner of labor statistics, has this to say about job prospects: "In 1950, probably also in 1951 and 1952, many will be un- able to find jobs immediately in the occupations for which they have been trained." He said there are fewer jobs for college graduates this year than in any post-war year and that an "unprecedented number" of new graduates is competing for them. FEWER GRADUATES IN 1951 'An - - --_ _ ^1--- -.rlle11 11f The Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with the Veterans Administration, is trying to help college men and women, especial- ly veterans, pick occupational fields which have the rosiest out- look. Trouble is, no outlook seems rosy today. GOVERNMENT REPORT Iere are some highlights from a recent government report which show the white-collar job scarci- ty: LAW - Already overcrowded and likely to become more so. Twice as many lawyers passed bar exams last year as in the years just before the war. "Un- precedented numbers" are now enrolled in law courses. ENGINEERING - "Not many professions growing so fast," says Harold Goldstein of BLS. He said 300,000 professionals were work- ing in engineering in 1945. By 1960, he said, the number will be more like 450,000. But for the early 1950's the number of gradu- ates will exceed the number of vacancies. CHEMISTRY - Competition will be "keen" for chemists with FROM STOCKHOLM TO MADRID: 'U' Students University students will tour Eu- rope from Spain to Sweden this summer, on individual trips or in travel groups gathered from all over the country. According to Health Service sta- tistics, inore than 190 Michigan students have already received vaccinations and other inoculation shots necessary for travel in such countries as France and Greece. MANY of these students plan to see Europe as members of or- ganized tours. Others will live with private families under the "Experi- ment in International Living," and a number of students will attend universities in France and Switzerland, making sight- seeing excursions during free time. France, England, Italy and Ger- many will be a few of the coun- tries visited by students on the Plan Long Summer Junkets m Europe * * * * * ** * * a . . : .... . . :..... {.i;'" Y: X". :in4v. .:tCt{., y.., .'.".: z, '{'":{""t'v; ".}5,.i. ::{{tr": "" . .N"'::.. ter. .. r.... ;.A.?r "rr:... y, r 'r"."r: ':::::::l:vl:":, ..; ....,:.. rTrD(e N }}::.t4::v CT ...; :"ti... :4n'4PGffiao+'' C'rb' hxea ?S e 6. \"xr: r. ...: ... :": r::{" ...- :: ' ..-' :: ":: .:': w.. -.. .. 4". a,
