Jobs for college men are scarce and will be scarcer, according to Seymour Harris, Professor of Economics.
Harris warns in his book, "This Market for College Graduates," that the siream of college graduates," wanting jobs is increasing while the number of jobs shrink. The book will be published today by the Harvard University Press.
Emphasizing many advantages, economic and non-economic, of higher education, Harris points out that "in the light of our college graduates" vocational expectations the numbers are and will be increasingly excessive."
Founding his estimates, in part, on the report of the President's Commission on Higher Education, Harris foresees a downward shift of college graduates' occupational expectancies as the only cure.
Seymour E. Harris '20, professor of Economics, will attend a Conference on Discrimination in College Admissions in Chicago on November 4 and 5.
