Patents Make Jobs Help 1953 Graduates Enter Workforce
A June crop of graduates faces a transformed job market due to wartime orders and new inventions. The National Patent Council credits patents with creating employment as firms seek graduates for applied science, plastics, electronics, and patented products. Philo Farnsworth and peers helped spark television, electronics, and chemistry advances driving hiring, with companies sending recruiters to campuses before diplomas are issued. The NPC emphasizes patents grant exclusive rights for 17 years, fueling competition and consumer buying power as the Class of 1953 moves forward.
