able ... not anymore,” he
said.
“Students need to
change the way they per
ceive responsibility in the
job search,” he said. “It is
much easier to let some
one find you instead of
you finding them, but
times have changed. Now
they need to take the ini
tiative.”
Wheeler said the cen
ter has 20 to 25 job list
ings a day.
"We’re in pretty good
shape compared to other
schools,” Wheeler said.
The Career Center also
offers a career resources
library, major/career files,
and career advising. A
placement orientation
seminar is offered weekly
during the summer.
Wheeler said the Ca
reer Center does not
change its program in the
summer. All the services
available during the fall
and spring are available
in the summer except for
special workshops on in
terviewing skills and re
sume preparation.
This is because of low
student demand for these
seminars during the sum
mer, he said.
The Career Center
would include the work
shops if the demand was
higher, he said.
“Because there are no
workshops during the
summer, we change the
emphasis of the orienta
tion to include some of
the subjects usually cov
ered in the workshops,”
Wheeler said.
Vicky Christopher, a
senior English major, said
that although the center
was helpful, it seems to
be geared towards engi
neering and industrial
distribution majors.
The Career Resources
Library has company
files, a video room with at
least 500 videos, directo
ries and magazines. It
also has career planning
materials as well as mate
rials on specific careers.
Jo Ann Ledlow, career
center librarian, said the
center does not allow stu
dents to check out many
books, but they can look
through them while visit
ing the Career Center.
Undergraduate advis
ers from the College of
Business and the College
of Liberal Arts often refer
students to the Career
Center.
Hillary Jessup, acade
mic adviser for the Col
lege of Business Adminis
tration, said the advisers
took a tour of the Career
Center about two months
ago.
“The Career Center is
very helpful, and we en
courage students to go
there,” she said.
The 13 companies visit
ing campus to recruit stu
dents are scheduled to be
gin later this month.

Rockets
Continued from Page 1
“He (Thorpe) lived off what
Hakeem did not get, he’s a real
force,” Knicks coach Pat Riley
said.
Thorpe scored 14 points, in
cluding a key basket in the
closing seconds when the
Knicks cut deeply into the
Rockets’ lead.
“His numbers don’t speal^
for what he does for this team,”
Tomjanovich said. “In the first
series he had to go up against
Buck Williams, and Cliff
Robinson, then he has since
played Charles Barkley and
Karl Malone.
“We could not have won
without his great effort
tonight. He has been great for
us in every series we’ve
played.”
Herrera had not played in a
game since May 17 when he re
ceived a shoulder separation in
Game 5 of the semifinal series
against Phoenix. He took ad
vantage of Houston’s 8-day lay
off after clinching the Western
Conference title.
But he returned on a hot
streak, giving the Rockets a boost
early in the second quarter.
“My shoulder didn’t hurt at
all, even when I jammed it,”
Herrera said. “I was more con
cerned about the team being off
as long as they were. I had to
work harder just to get back to
normal playing condition.”
The Rockets expected a
rugged physical test from the
Knicks and they got it.
“It was so intense out there,
something had to suffer and
tonight it had to be the shoot
ing,” Herrera said.
The lack of outside shooting
by the Rockets, put the heat on
Thorpe to get more offensive
rebounds.
“We had to go more for of
fensive rebounds because our
perimeter shots weren’t
falling,” Thorpe said. “Of
course, that means I had more
teJna sm
opportunities.
“The fourth period we always
talk about execution. Tonight, it
wasn’t there so I had to rebound
we had to hit free throws and
hang in there . we had no trou
ble with fatigues, the week off
was concern I’m glad that game
is behind us.
“Both teams had problems
with jitters. But it’s a relief that
we were able to get the win and
get off to a good start.”
