問題詳情:
College graduation brings both the satisfaction of academic achievement and the expectation of a wellpaid job.
But for 6,000 graduates at San Jose State this year, there’s uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job markets in decades. Ryan Stewart has a freshly received degree in religious studies, but no job prospects(前景).
“You look at everybody’s parents and neighbors, and they’re getting laid off and don’t have jobs,” said Stewart.“Then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce... it’s just scary.”
When the class of 2003 entered college the future never looked brighter. But in the four years they’ve been here, the world outside has changed dramatically(巨大地).
“Those were the exciting times, lots of opportunities, exploding offers, students getting top dollar with lots of benefits,” said Chery AllmenVinnidge, of the San Jose State Career Center.“Times have changed now. It’s a new market.”
Chery AllmenVinnidge ought to know. She runs the San Jose State Career Center, a sort of a crossroads between college and the real world. AllmenVinnidge says students who do find jobs after college have done their homework.
“The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago. They’ve prepared themselves well during the summer. They’ve had several internships(實習),” she said.
And they’ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot—like chemical engineering, accounting, or nursing—where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like information systems management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.
Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may just end up going back to school.
“I’d like to teach college some day and that requires more schooling, which would be great in a bad economy,” he said.
To some students’ degree may not be ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its value will increase over time.
main idea of this story is that.
