Women's Bureau Makes Survey
Do American women lead lei-
sure lives upon graduation from
college?
According to a joint survey
made by the Women's Bureau of
the U.-S. Labor Department and
tbe Women's section of the Na-
tional Vocational Guidance Assn.
this is apparently not so.
Of the 81,000 coeds graudating
in June 1955, one third are mar-
ried but two thirds of these are
working. Over four fifths of the
unmarried coeds are working.
About one eighth of the unmar-
ried are continuing their college
education.
Women in Professions:
Alice K. Leoplold, assistant toj
the secretary of labor for women's'
affairs, reports working women;
are in every profession from ac-
tress to geologist. Sixty percent
are teaching, twenty percent are

nurses, laboratory technicians,
social scientists, artists or report-
ers. Fifteen percent of the women
employed are in clerical work,
fifteen percent in retail trade,
service or finance work.
Aside from teaching and nurs-
ing, few women entered fields in
which they majored in college.
An unusual questionnaire was
sent out by the American Asso-
ciation of University Women. Dr.
Hallie Farmer, chairman of the
Association Survey Committee ex-
pressed surprise at some of the
answers.
Questionnaires Sent Out
"People have been under the
impression that there is some-
thing contradictory gbout being
an educated woman and having
a husband and family. The ques-
tionnaires show that our members
marry and have children like any
other women," she said.
The survey further indicated
that the median total income of
these women is $6,750. This in-
cludes the husband's earnings for
those who are married. Over 9,600
listed themselves in the income
bracket between '$5,000 and $10,-
000.
Dr. Farmer, who has just retired
as a professor of history at Ala-
bama College refused to conclude
that an educated woman is in a
better position to catch a rich
husband.'
She said the figures indicate
that the women lead a life that
is generally- considered comfort-
able.

dence halls.

like to incorporate an alumnae

the independent women feel that

to contribute to a group after
graduation.

residence halls which ,will work

tration to settle complaints which
