Fontera-Jiopes for -communication'· [J by Randy Golkin

Dr. Richard Fontera is the third MSC president in five years and he hopes to end the era of musical chairs by ex­ecuting long term objectives and staying to see them work effectively.

Fontera is committed to improving the institution, which he feels can be ac­complished by clearing the channels of communication within MSC and sharpe11ing the school's image in the community.

"It (MSC) needs to sharpen it's image, ~ needs to stand for something,"

Dr. Richard Fontera

Fontera said. "The people both internal­ly and externally should realize the values that are here."

"When the next president arrives in 2070 or whenever it may be, I want him to be able to say this place has an open communication system," Fontera add­ed.

Unlike some of MSC's former leaders, Fontera believes honesty and openness will create an "open communication system" at MSC. He despises people speaking behind each others' backs or filing formal complaints with the absence of key ~ames,

As the new leader of MSC, Fontera has already introduced himself to many of the faculty, who were stunned to see the president walk into their offices. He intends to be accessible to all and pro­mised to never say "no comment" when being interviewed.

On the other hand, Fofltera is a very busy man and won't be able to speak to every student; professor or ad­ministrator-who has a problem. He ex­pects MSC people to learn which chan­nels to go through to solve a discrepan-cy. -

"I don't want people to think the new president is so accessible that they come to the new president with every little problem," said Fontera. "I want to see to it that they talk to someone who's job it is.

"I perceive it to be my job to inform people in the system of their rights; peo­ple must know their obligations," he ad-

ded. "There is a real gap between teachers

and administrators who are wondering who the students are," Fontera explain­ed. "We have such a large_ number of students besides just young typical students from high school.

"I happen to believe," Fontera con­tinued, "a 19-year-old has trouble com­municating with a 39-year-old because they are their parent's age, but they have less trouble communicating with senior citizens. · "We need a more relaxed atmosphere

so students can communicate with each other better," he added.

Since such a wide variety of students attend MSC, Fontera believes the school should sponsor more family-oriented events. Activities, like sports gatherings, would bring students, staff and faculty closer and at the same time improve MSC' s visibility· by attracting outsiders to the campus.

MSC has competitive volleyball, basketball and baseball plus other teams and as more students get involved with these activities, they'll bring more fami­ly and friends to come and watch them. Also, if the teams improve, the winning spirit may sprinkle through the campus.

Fontera also suggested holding con­certs and picnics that would accom­modate all ages. Since the Denver Center for the Performing Arts; .located directly across from the campus on Speer Boulevard, is willing to work with MSC in building a relationship, the

possibilities for such events seem very good.

On a more serious note, Fontera said more students should get involved with the MSC Alumni, lobby at the state legislature and perhaps raise money for the school.

"There are about 14,000 MSC graduates living within the greater metropolitan area of Denver," Fontera said. "If we could bring them together-the legislature can't ignore 14,000 voters."

Fontera will hold regular meetings with student and faculty leaders to start getting some of these social and political events planned.

He has already spent time with stude~ts during the MSC orientations last week, and on Tuesday Fontera ad­dressed MSC's faculty and staff.

One of the reasons Fontera obtained the president's position was because of his experience with mergers. On the issue of UCD merging with MSC and eventually absorbing it, Fontera doesn't see this happening.

In his own words: "Someone has in their mind that MSC

is a sardine and UCD is a whale that will eat the sardine," said Fontera. "Nobody will swallow this sardine-as long as it's doing a good job."

Fontera feels if MSC performs the community services it should and can obtafn an image in Denver, the people won t allow a merger.

JHews Graduates competing for fewer jobs (CPS)-The job market for \his year's

college grads isn't good, and it may even ,. be getting worse.

ecutive vice-president of the Interstate Conference of Employment Securities Agencies. "Companies have had to cut back drastically. For the first time we are seeing college graduates working in jobs that are trainee positions."

That's the prognosis offered by place­ment and employment experts around the country, who add that even the so­called "hot majors" -engineering and computer science students-are getting significantly fewer job offers than their

$. counterparts a year ago.

Employers and placemept experts blame the recession. Hundreds of top corporations have instituted hiring freezes, cut back on the number of col­lege grads they employ, and cancelled their college recruitment programs.

"The job market is definitely softening for college grads," observes Jack Shingleton, the placement ·director at Michigan State University who ad­ministers a yearly survey of business col­lege recruiting plans.

"Disciplines such as social science, arts and letters, and education are ex­periencing the greatest underemploy­ment. Even the engineering and com­puter science majors are not as well off as they were two or three years ago," he

"We're not hiring at all, and we don't plan to in the near future," says a spokeswoman for Sperry-Univac's Mini­Computer Division, which several years

. ago was aggressively recruiting college grads.

Likewise, Xerox cut the number of college graduates it hired by 20 percent, and company officials expect the situa­tion to get worse before it gets better.

> says. And Exxon, traditionally a major recruiter of engineers and other high­tech nolo gy majors , , is currently recruiting only at selected schools.

....,

The College Placement Council, a trade association of campus placement offices, reports job offers to June grads declined for the first time in six years, in 1982.

The U.S. Department of Labor says high school and college student unemployment has hit 14.4 percent, up· from 13. 7 percent a year ago.

"The job opportunities are just not there," says William Heartwell Jr., ex-

~~ re-~ ~ · dfome dfway

"Our recruiting efforts have been cur­tailed dramatically," says an Exxon representative. "With the economy the way it is, things are very slow."

"Employers are being a bit more cautious this year because of the economy," summarizes Linda Pengilly, of theCollege Placement Council.

"It's definitely a tighter market than last year," agrees Rene Filice, placement director for the College of Liberal Arts at Stanford. "We're hearing about a lot of companies having hiring freezes. A lot

of people are going through the inter­view process and everything, only to find out that the company has instituted a freeze."

"vws Health clinic offers aid to A·uraria community

by Kathleen L. Humphreys

When you walk into the MSC Student Health Clinic, be prepared for more than a band-aid station. It compares to · any physician's office, and has the add­ed benefit of low-cost health care for limited student budgets.

Should you need to use the clinic, just walk, hobble, or crawl to room 140 of the Student Center, down the hall fro~ the bookstore.

"The clinic offers primary health care; it functions as a community-based physician's office," explained Director B. J. Collard.

The Student Health Clinic is not an emergency room, it's the same as any doctor's office. MSC student health in­surance is totally separate from the clinic.

"Students do not have to carry student health insurance to use the clinic,'' said Assistant Director Mignon Murphy. '

MSC established and outfitted the clinic, therefore, those students have lowei: rates than CCD and UCO students whose finances are funded dif­ferently. All MSC students carrying at least one credit hour are welcome to use the services.

MSC students have access to the clinic

without cost because funds are deducted from student fees, according to Murphy. Each year a budget is presented to the MSC Student Affairs Board and a subse­quent payment is made.

Collard revealed last September that all faculty and staff on campus must pay a fee similar to a doetor's office for clinic services.

"The funding cutbacks have affected the health clinic; this factor as well as meeting campus needs are the motiva­tion behind treating more of the Auraria population." said Collard.

Minimal costs for involved medical procedures are a result of lowered revenue. A donation from CCD's depleted health budget enables its students to use the clinic. CCD is billed by semester, $35 per student availing themselves of clinic services. UCO is not left out "with a cold."

Students of this institution may utilize the clinic for $35 a semester, because the university doesn't subsidize the center.

"I resent the fact that MSC is over­charging," expressed UCO student Ran­dy Wood, who suggested "MSC should pay three times as much for UCO con­trolled services."

.._ Interfaith. Center's future in doubt Since the opening of the Auraria

Higher Education Center, the St. Fran­cis Interfaith Center has stood as a

" .llt haven to all seeking solitude and refuge from their frantic schedules.

Administered by the Franciscan Order, the Center was named for Fran­cis of Assisi, a Roman Catholic saint known for his compassion for animals

-i,. and nature. The Franciscans, however, h~ve an­

nounced they are terminating their in­volvement with the Center.

According to Father Declan A. Mad-

den, center director, the headquarters of pis Franciscan province are in New York. In what · he terms "a retrenchment", the Order is calling its members in Denver back to the fold, or at least closer to- it. ·

The Franciscans began their relation­ship with Co~orado in the early years of American history when the Order sent a contingent of German-speaking Fran­ciscans here to work with immigrants in this area.

Financial reasons appear to be at the

There is hope some other organization will take over the administration of the Interfaith Center. The Catholic Ar­chdiocese of Denver has been approach­ed and is considering some type of in­volvement.

~,Fvatu-rv ~ CU offers-a new Masters · Degree program -

Almost everyone knows that if you have a Masters Degree in Anthropology you can go out and be an An­thropologist. If you have a Masters in ~cono~cs, you can try to become another Milton Friedman.

But what can you do with a Masters in Humanities?

The question probably translates roughly into, "How can you turn a

._.Masters in Humanities into cold cash?"; the implication being that all anyone wants with higher education today is tenure, more money or a better job:

With the asmmption that an awful lot of people, especially vintage graduates,

_ think of intellectual development as its own reward, the University of Colorado (along with a growing number of col­leges and universities across the country) is offering a concept called Inter­disciplinary Masters Degree programs. Three of them, the Masters in

5' Humanities, the Masters in Basic Science and the Masters in Social· Science, are listed in the University of Colorado post-baccalaureate school line-up.

All three seem to cover such broad '· .,._areas one's first reaction really d~ seem

to be, "What can you do with them?" According to the Masters of

Humanities promotion material, the purpose of an MH is to provide an ~p­portunity for students to broaden their

...._understanding of the relationships bet­ween the several areas normally listed under the heailing "Humanities." The same principle would, no doubt, apply to the Masters in Basic and Social Sciences.

7 According to the information on the Masters in Humanities, the hours of study are quite flexible: there's no rush to finish. The student can take up to six years and choose from a variety of sub­jects including English, fine arts, Ger-

1WI1an, French, Spanish, philosophy, music, theatre and others. If one decides along the way to change to a more specific course of study, credits can be transferred.

"$ The program requires some indepen­dent study but also offers class time and lectures. There is a review committee and students can meet at informally­arranged gatherings with others in the program for an exchange of ideas and

..._.fellowship. The whole program seems to c arry with it a breadth and variety not usually found in more finely-focused courses of study.

Dr. J.erry Johnson, director of the Masters in Humanities program at

iaucn, agrees. He describes the Inter­disciplinary Degree program as ··torm following function," and explained, "As more and more men and woQJ.en make continuing education part of their lives, some of the old programs geared mainly

~work and careers don't seem to fit the· I expectations of the student who doesn't

need, or want to emphasize, just one discipline."

Dr. Johnson cited as an example a

graduate student who may have ma­jored in Computer Science. According to Johnson, "This student may be work­ing for IBM and may not be interested in more computer training. He may be get­ting all he needs right on the job. He does want to go back to school but he doesn't neces.urily want a Masters in Computer Science. He does, however, want a Masters in something to show for his effort, time and tuition."

Therefore, for the person looking to c.ontinue his education within the framework of a Masters program but without a lot of restrictions or the pro­liferation of detail on a single subject, for the person who wants to learn to drive the car without having to learn how to build it first, Interdisciplinary Degrees- may be the way to go. ·

If you can get away from the ubi­quitous conversations of funding and cuts and budgets and staff reductions, there really are a lot of innovative, in­teresting new thintp developing in education. Interdisciplinary Degree programs is just one of them.

"How dull it is to pawe, to make an end To rust unbumished, not to shine in use, As tho' to breathe were life." .

Who can blame him? We live fu an

It would be a shame if a lot of people oriented to life-long learning stopped because they didn't_ want "four more years of the same."

Jimmy Cliff and P share their m

With the multi at the Auraria c

By all standards, last week's Jimmy Cliff/Peter Tosh concert was a tremen­dous success-a fact certain to en~ courage further concerts at Auraria.

The show drew more than 5,500 peo­ple who were treated to thorough and total bombardment of the senses. Though physically-drained halfway through the ·performance, the psychically-charged crowd refused to stop dancing. Totally tuned to the reg­gae rhythm, people moved and grooved into olissful exhaustion.

Imelda Mulholland, an Auraria stu­dent, recalled the prevailing mood. "The concert was about freedom and peace, and the people were supporting that. Everywhere J wandered through the crowd, people were receptive, friendly and mellow. Everybody was together and wanted others to be happy.'

The happiness felt by concert-goers was · complemented by the contented view of Public Safety Director Dave Rivera. "Things went smooth," said Rivera, "hardly any problems . . . no, we didn't bust anybody for dope, we more or less guarded the perimeter of the area."

Within the perimeter, civil distur­bances were few and minor. One woman jumped the fence and broke her foot, and a man had to be treated for alcohol intoxication. Outside the perimeter, a complaint was received from a tenant of neighboring Brooks Towers, which became a sounding board for the music as it crossed over Speer Boulevard, flooding th~ downtown area.

In contrast, workers leaving the DCPA (Denver Center for the Perform­ing Arts) phoned during the concert to

·things went. He explained that AHEC "encouraged and supports the use ot aH campus facilities for cultural events."

AHEC's enthusiasm, along with the go-ahead by Dave Rivera, whose biggest concern is "that we have a little more help next time," seems to pave the way for future concerts on the playing field. Considering the commercial and social success of the event, one can almost im­agine the day, when Auraria is common­ly thought of as "the preferred alter­native" in outdoor entertainment. In­deed . . . congratulations to UCD Stu­dent Programs for having the courage and the skill to go ahead and the good fortune to pull it off.

The Metropolitan September 1, 1982 11

·"ews ... Roy Foreman free after 3¥2 years

by Brian Coffey-Weber

Editor's note: Over the last two years The

,......,. Metropolitan has published numerous stories detailing the case of former UCD student Roy Foreman.

Foreman was imprisoned from . Jamlllry 1979 to July 1982 after being convicted of first-degree murder-a crime he claimed he was innocent of and

...-. one another man confessed to commit­ting.

Foreman's battle for freedom ended July 15, when he pleaded guilty to a much lesser offense and was released.

In the following articles The ~ Metropolitan's former editor, Brian

Coffey-Weber, caps off the paper's coverage of tfJ.e Roy Foreman case.

Former UCO student Roy Foreman, who spent the last three and a half years in prison for first-degree murder-a

.i crime he repeatedly claimed he did not commit-was granted his freedom re­cently after pleading guilty to a much lesser crime.

Foreman was released July 15, after pleading guilty in Littleton District Court to accessory after the fact of

>- second-degree murder. He was sentenc­ed to time already served.

Foreman also agreed to testify at the new trial of Robert Shaw, the confessed killer in the case. Shaw had originally

been convicted of second-degree murder but the Colorado Supreme Collrt recent­ly granted him a new trial.

In the new trial, the court ruled May 28, the jury should be allowed to con­sider lesser offenses such a-s manslaughter, negligent homicide and possibly ~ccidental death. During Shaw's first trial the judge permitted the jury to only consider first-or second­degree murder for the shooting death of Dale Stubblefield.

"When Shaw got a new trial they didn't have much choice but to let me go," Foreman said recently. "They were

·faced with having Shaw get off on an even lesser charge and me still in prison."

"I told them to either cut me loose or try Shaw without my testimony," he ad­ded.

Foreman had turned down previous offers from prosecutors to plead guilty to second-degree murder and a possible parole. He relunctantly agreed to the new plea, "because I was ready to plead to anything and get out of there the

d .. ....

there was still a possible one-to two-year wait with no guarantees of freedom.

Foreman and his wife' Nellie, felt los­ing their right to sue was worth Foreman's immediate release, even though they feel he is guilty of nothing more than being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Foreman's plight, which some have called the most blatant miscarriage of justice in recent Colorado history, began on January 16, 1979, when along the

~Foreman finds transition smooth Until a month and half ago the only

slamming metal Roy Foreman heard was the sound of large barred doors roll­ing shut keeping him confined in max-

• imum security in the state penitentiary. . Now he can hear the sweet slam of a

car hood closing after he's put some of his mechanical magic into an engine.

"This is me-all dirty and greasy," Foreman said with his hearty laugh

, after successfully installing an engine in his wife Nellie's car.

The car's been idle as lon·g as Foreman-three and a half years.

"Yeah, they took this away from me," Foreman said of being deprieved of his under-the-hood passion.

Foreman is philosophical and remarkably not bitter about the torment he experienced.

"You can't beat them by gettin mad and bitter," Foreman said.

' Foreman says in prison a person can't let his fears get to him.

"The only way to do that is to do 'hardtime'," Foreman said. "I always did 'hard time'."

'Hard time' is never forgetting your ~ life on the 'outside'. If you do "you die

on th~ inside," Foreman said. Foreman credits "the constant

drumbeat of InCAR," and the fact pro­secutors could no longer ingnore his in­nocence.

-.,:: InCAR is the International Commit­tee Against Racism. It is a multi-racial national organization of students, workers and military personnel which combats racism.

Siltce Foreman was the only black in the case-tried and convicted by an all­white jury-and given the other incon­sistencies and irregularities in. his case, InCAR felt he was a victim of racism.

InCAR, especially its Auraria campus branch, was the only group to actively work for Foreman's release. The group held numerous rallies at the Governor's Mansion and at Auraria to bring atten­tion to Foreman's case. It also engaged in letter-writing campaigns and general­ly refused to let offici~ forget the case.

Foreman says without that attention he would still be in prison.

The ease with which he left prison and flowed back into the mainstream, may surprise some people but not Foreman.

"I just never got used to being there,'.­Foreman said with certainty.

He was most surprised by high gas prices and "tl;le crazy way people drive."

Since his release Foreman has gotten a job working in a warehouse and is anx­ious to continue education at UCD. He plans to be back in the spring pursuing an engineering degree.

Even though his son, Roy Jr., was on­ly five and his daughter, Alesia wasn't even born when he was jailed.the family appears to have made a smooth transi­tion to having two parents. The two children seem comfortable with the male presence they needed and lacked for so long ..

"It's just like I was meant to be here,'' Foreman said.

Nellie too, had to cope with the fear and frustration of Roy's absence. She

had to become decision-maker and breadwinner. She's had to go from total self-reliance to sharing responsibilities.

"And I've had 1:0 learn how to relax again,'' Nellie said .

While the adjustments have been relatively minor the change is great.

"It's the freedom to do what you want when you want," Foreman said when asked his biggest pleasure after his release. "It's the freedom to get tired if you want. The freedom of having op­tions."

And he scoffs at fears of ever being im­prisoned again.

"It doesn't scare me," Foreman said. "What can they do to me . . . what more can they do to me? I survived."

at Foreman. Then another man, Stub­blefield, grabbed Shaw from behind. Shaw panicked and shot Stubblefield, killing him.

Shaw then forced Foreman-at gun­point-to help him dispose of the body and threatened to harm Foreman and his family if he reported the incident to the police.

Seven days later, Foreman, Shaw and Shaw's girlfriend, Anita Soffa, were ar­rested and charged with first-degree murder with deliberation, first-degree murder while committing a felony, kid-

napping, robbery and conspiracy to commit murder.

Soffa, who was at the scene but did not witness the shooting, gave a state­ment to the police in return for immuni­ty from prosecution. She implicated Shaw in the statement and 1Jlaced Foreman at the scene.

Foreman was tri&:l in September of 1979 before Judge Richard Greene in Arapahoe County District Court. He was accused of being a complicitor (one who aids, abets or advises another per­son in committing a crime) and conspir­ing to commit murder.

It took the jury less than four hours to acquit Foreman of robbery and felony

murder but to convict him of premeditated murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

Normally, the alleged complicitor is tried after the principal co-defendant.

Not rin this case, however. Two weeks later-before the same

jµdge-Shaw testified at his own trial that he alone shot Stubblefield. Shaw completely exonerated Foreman of any involvement in the shooting describing Foreman as, "a victim and totally blameless."

For reasons they did not explain, the prosecution ·dropped the conspiracy charges ·against Shaw. The jury found Shaw guilty of second-degree murder

meaning there was no deliberation or premeditation when Shaw shot Stub- ..A blefield.

At a hearing on June 2, 1980, Greene noted the "apparent inconsistencies of the verdicts" but refused to grant Foreman's motion for a new trial.

Greene then sent Foreman to Canon Cjty for the rest of h1s life plus 25 to 50 ~ years for conspiracy.

Two days later Shaw appeared for sentencing. Remembering Foreman, Greene said, "To impose other than a substantial sentence here would make a mockery of the criminal justice system." -.

Shaw received 38 to 50 years. Two years after his arrest, Foreman

filed an appeal which raised some disturbing questions: How could Foreman be convicted of helping Shaw plan a murder when Shaw was acquit­ted of that crime (first-degree murder)? ' How could Foreman have conspired with Shaw, who admitted to the shooting, when the prosecutors dropped that charge against Shaw?

The appeal also raised questions of in­sufficient evidence for conspiracy and \.

· first-degree m'urder, police destruction of Anita Soffa's statements, inadequate defense and admission of hearsay evidence.

The Supreme Court also ruled that Judge Green should have considered a post-conviction review of Foreman's case after Shaw's jury found him guilty of only second-degree murder.

With Foreman's release it is unlikely that any of these questions and ir­regularities will receive public answers or explanations.

~ both the men and women's competition is the best in the state. Last year the men ended with the 19th best team in the na­tion in NAIA. Even this rating is ques­tionable due to the team's final game, a 1-0 loss to eventual runner-up national

....- champion Midwestern of Texas. MSC had a goal in the net to tie the game but it was disallowed on a referee's error in what, incidentally, was the best refer-reed game of the year. But you can't blame the referee, or can you?

That MSC team-which won the ~ District 7 Championship-returns this

year intact, only losing two starters. They won't be missed because of return­ing players from the 1980 team who were ineligible for play last year, in­cludirtg the team's leading scorer of '80,

i- so the team has plugged its gaps in good fashion.

Also returning are three All­Americans: Lorne Donaldson was first team honorable mention as a striker, Marcus Motte was honorable mention goalkeeper and Oscar Laurel an

after fall semester begins and, if their dedication to play is strong enough, he can then field a second club team. Another problem is that he has to make this decision in a week to 10 days. If you are interested, w.hether a UCD student or MetrQ student, you are eligible for the club teams. For information about prac­tice times and questions, call Coach Temmer at home: 770-6001 or on cam­pus at 629-3082 or 2971. Remember, there are NO cuts and they need players for a second club team.

Looking back at such a strong club in '81 brings to mind questions of how did this nucleus come about. It starts with the coaching staff.

Head Coach Harry Temmer is a highly motivated, intelligent man. He's been on staff at MSC for 15 years. He began the soccer team as a club, pushing and shoving for money, time, a field and what he still has got the least of: recognition. After talking with him I found he has a genuine love for the game with a very realistic approach. Inside this man is a little boy with· sweaty palms who can't wait to get out in the grass and play. His insight and dedica­tion are in the classical a,spect of a true coach. He's remained head coach for 15 years because he "built a product, and is seeing it through." Asked what are his goals for the upcoming season, "We're going for the gold," Temmer declared.

Coach Temmer stresses "the biggest question is 'What's the competition done.' I think we're better than last year . but fairly certain so is the competition. So the relative improvements between the teams .is debatable and we won't find out to what extreme until the season ends, really."

"We've felt we've kept pace. with. whatever their improvements are and we're hoping that's the case." he added.

Recognition is the missing ingredient for this highly potential team. Without recognition you can't produce even a small amount· of revenue to help with expenses. This year, like last, MSC will' be charging at the gate for admission, If you're a student, you must have a valid l.D. All non-students will be $2, and students without l.D.'s will be charged $1.50, a very small price to.pay to see a nationally-ranked team. Most students aren't even aware that MSC has a varsi­ty soccer team, let alone a nationally­ranked powerhouse.

Coach Temmer would like to market this team e~tensiYely, and that begins

. with student body support, followed by word of mouth. Soccer is a constantly moving activity with no time-outs. The cliche drawback is that it is low-scoring and boring. The skills and continually fluent actions are far superior to that of most other spectator sports.

People in Denver have the opportuni­ty to see what may very well be the hot­test soccer team in the Rocky Moun­tains. Incidentally, at least 6 players on the MSC squad are equivalent to any rostered Avalanche.

The. Roadrunners open up at home

. Thursday against Fresno-Pacific, Satur­day at home against BYU at 2:00 pm and Sunday at home at 2:00 pm against Tulsa. Tulsa will play BYU Monday on the MSC playing field. This is an ex-

. cellent opportunity for a look at high quality college soccer and to see for yourself the level the Roadrunners play at. Come out and support MSC soccer and see that it really is a kick in the grass!

backs and the lowest level of job offers in six years, many experts note that things could be much worse, and some even predict a turnaround in the job market by the end of the year.

"In spite of the fact that there are fewer job offers," points out the Place­ment Council's Pengilly, "salaries have · not really seemed to suffer."

Engineering grads, for example, have enjoyed eight-to-14 percent salary hikes . . Computer science majors are drawing six percent higher salaries. Business grads can expect eight-to-nine percent increases over last year.

The high-teeh disciplines, followed by business majors, remain the degrees of choice when it comes to job openings and starting salaries. Even with a nine percent drop in the number of engineer­ing openings, the Engineering Man­power Commission reports that the unemployment rate among engineers is a meager two percent.

"I think the (job) market is coming. back, but in a different way," he ex­plains. "The hot majors of the future will be in areas such as human resources management, productivity improve­ment and time management-basically any area that has to do with creating a better, more effective long-term en-' vironment." ·

But that apparently excludes liberal arts majors.

"While salaries for engineers at least managed to keep up with the consumer pric~ index," Michigan State's Shingleton says, "liberal arts disciplines have been creeping up al three-to-five
