Accounting is a fast grow ing job field. More and more pressure is being applied to businesses to prove their ac counting proceedures. While there may be some competi tion for jobs, the best place to find them is in large cities. The projected growth this field is 25 percent, and start ing salary is $12,000. Actuaries. Who are they you ask. They are the people who figure the odds for in surance companies, so if you hate math, count this one out. Forty percent of all actuary work is done in New York, Hartford, Chicago, Philadel phia or Boston. Starting sal ary is $13,000, and the growth should be 35 percent. Marketing and sales doesn't have such a prom ising look in the area of job growth — only 15 percent is predicted. Most of the job turnover in this area will be from people dying, retiring or finding a new career. Many other areas of busi ness, such as such as bank of ficer, require post graduate work. Engineering has been, and will continue to provide plenty of jobs. It's one field where being a recent grad uate is helpful, because you're familiar with the new technology. Though some areas like petroleum and chemical are experiencing a slump, it's still a good degree to have. Safety engineering has a projected growth of only 15 percent, but starting salary is $20,000. In agriculture engineering there is modest competition for jobs, but the surge in American dieting fads, health awareness and concern for world hunger may increase the demand for this career. Ag engineers are responsi ble for creating a lower cal orie, less expensive potatoe chip. Starting salaries are $22,000, but the best news is a job can be found almost anywhere. Book— Continued from page 8 semester, but recalls the frustra tion of work and classes last se mester. “You have to make free time because you have none,” Gil- brech says. “All the spare time I had, I spent working. It gets very frustrating. When you get off, all you can think about is resting from all the pressure. Gilbrech says the pressure begins when the student has to work to pay for tuition, then in creases throughout the semes ter when the student tries to keep the grades up. Asked if the job takes away from the “college life,” most of the working students say no. They says it not only enhances their social life (in meeting more students), but it also gives them good work experience. “It was the best job I ever had,” says Lori McNeill, a se nior education major. McNeill is student teaching this semes ter, but worked as a cashier in the MSG bookstore last semes ter. “I’m glad I did it,” she says. “I forced myself to budget my time, and it was worth the sacri fices. I recommend working for anyone who needs to get their life in order.” If your field was not in cluded, or if you're a liberal arts student considering a major change, more informa tion can be found from the following places: Occupation Outlook Report, which is put out by the U.S. Dept, of La bor, 90 Most Promising Ca reers for the 80s, by Anita Gates and Careers Tomor row, By Gene R.

After that she de cided that she would rather stay in the College Station area, than work in Dallas. She went to banks in the area and eventually found an ac counting job at Brazos Bank, she says. Though Scott didn’t find her job through the placement cen ter, she encourages students to use it. “My sister did get her job through the center, and she also is an accounting major,” she says. “It’s a good opportunity. Though some majors, like hor ticulture, may not have many companies looking for them, the companies there are ob viously looking for someone just out of college.” WARPED GREATEST ITS The second treasury of the comic strip "Warped," by Scott McCullar available at: Bobbie’s Books, Loupot’s, Hastings, B.
