Twenty Thousand Graduates Face a Crowded Job Market
Twenty thousand graduates from colleges and professional schools entered the labor pool last month. About 9,000 from colleges, 1,506 from technical schools, 1,000 from theological seminaries, 3,500 from law schools, and 5,500 from medical schools. The piece argues continued effort and humility will favor the educated in competitive fields, noting medicine and law are already crowded. In business, finance, and technical work there is room, but success requires starting at the bottom and persisting. The college graduate’s broader outlook aids long-term gains, though the “big head” can hinder progress.
