From the Back Cover
Past generations of American students have met the expenses of going to college by pursuing summer jobs and working around twenty hours a week during the academic year; however, such employment is not now so readily available, and with the cost of college tuition increasing, alternative means of funding need to be sought. In an attempt to solve the problem, a number of universities, following the original examples of Cornell, devised programs focusing on the creation of useful and career-related employment opportunities in order to help students pay for a significant portion of their college expenses. This book records the outcome of these programs, evaluating firstly what they accomplished, through relating the experiences of a number of participants, and going on to offer suggestions on setting them up. Of interest to all working in higher education, and especially careers planners and developers, it aims to provide a set of ideas and projects for use with students.
