“I’m not sure
yet; I’m delaying
the inevitable.
I’ll probably
continue
with my education
and pursue
grad school. Employment
rates
aren’t too promising,
so I’m concerned like the
rest of us in this boat.”
— Brandon Wilk, Hartwick
College economics major, Hillsborough,
N.J.
“Well, I would be graduating
this year, but I
had to take some
time off from
school because
my dad can’t afford
for me to
go to college
anymore. So I’m
looking at a lot
of loans. But who
knows, once I finish my degree,
I’ll probably have just as hard
of a time finding a job.”
— Rebeka Jackson, former
SUNY Delhi veterinary technician
major, Oneonta
“I’ve started
looking around.
I’m going into
the trades. I’m
a construction
technology major.
I’m about to
apply for the carpenters
union.
I’m not too worried.
They’re always hiring construction
jobs somewhere.”
— Kenn Pagano, Fulton-
Montgomery Community College
student
“Well, I’m going to grad
school after this. With the economy
in a downturn,
I figure I’ll
stay in college
until it gets a little
better. There
just aren’t jobs
out there right
now in my field
of study, and in
general.”
— Levi Reed, SUNY Oneonta
psychology major, Oneonta
“I’m going to be a teacher,
but I haven’t
started looking
yet. I’m an English
education
major, and those
jobs are tough
to find. So it’s a
little scary.”
— Amanda
Bowman, SUNY
Oneonta English education major
“I’m a sociology major. I’ll
probably get my master’s and
become a guidance
counselor,
but I might want
to take a break
from school after
this and see if I
can actually find
a job somewhere.
This economy
has definitely
affected my planning. With the
job market the way it is, a job
doesn’t seem like much of an
option right now.”
— Brendan Hamel, Hartwick
College sociology major, Hingham,
Mass.
