ZARAPE’S
A CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY
Fresh out of school, Bob Wilson, ’53,
was put to work on a Transistor project
at Bell Laboratories. He explains why
he never had time to be awed.
(Reading Time: 39 seconds)
Bob Wilson works on a “breadboard” circuit, study
ing the electrical properties of a carrier system.
“In some ways it was hard to believe. I
had received my B.E.E. at the Univer
sity of Delaware in June, 1953, and a
week later I was working in the world-
famous Bell Laboratories.
“But I didn’t have time to be awed be
cause they put me right to work. They
gave me responsibility fast.
“My group was working on the experi
mental application of transistors to carrier
systems. My assignment was the elec
trical design of a variolosser for the com
pressor and for the expandor to be located
in the terminals.
* “The supervision I received and the
equipment I had were tops. I quickly dis
covered that I had to rely on my ingenuity
as much as on the college courses I had
taken. Perhaps that’s one reason for the
great new discoveries continually turned
out by the Labs.
“Now, I’m in the Communication De- j
velopment Training Program, continuing
my technical education and learning what 4
all the Laboratories sections do and how;
their work is integrated.
“In a year I’ll be back working with
the group with which I started.”
• • • n>
Assuming responsibility fast is a common
experience among the engineering, phys
ical science, arts and social science, and
business administration graduates who join
the Bell System. Bob Wilson went with
Bell Laboratories. There also are job op- j
portunities with the operating telephone I?
companies, Western Electric and Sandia ^4
