Mr. Hale believes a "more aggressive" program of career counseling for students is needed. The USU placement officer reported that in a recent meeting of more than 200 employers from the western United States with college placement officials, the mismatch sparked lively discussion. "Employers related their increasing demands for engineers, technicians, computer science and data processing specialists. But placement officers reported that the majority of their 1979 graduates will be in liberal arts and social sciences," he noted. Mr. Hale emphasized that he did not want to discount the value of broad education, but at the same time he strongly advised students in liberal arts and social sciences to include courses in business, economics, sales, accounting or computer science in their academic programs. "This would provide employers with evidence that they do have some interest and knowledge of the career fields most likely to be available to them," he suggested. "Even liberal arts students need to take some business related courses, because most of them will eventually be employed in business related positions where the computer is involved," he said. The difficulty is, the placement officer said, that too many students are not getting adequate advice on preparation for careers. High school counselors and teachers and college faculty members need to help the students as they plan for the future. College placement offices need to help too, he said, but it is often too late before such offices have an opportunity to counsel students. "Most students come to us when they are juniors or seniors. They need help before that. We need to help faculty members help advise the students as they are registering for their courses," he asserted. There needs to be a more effective communication network among employers, college curriculum planners, faculty advisors and college placement representatives. This could result in employers' views being considered in the curriculum decision making process of colleges and universities, Mr. Hale suggested. "The demand for graduates from engineering, the physical sciences, business and computer related programs is strongly evident both within Utah and out of state, as reflected by career planning and placement officer contacts with major employers. More than 60 per cent of our office's contacts are with employers seeking graduates in such programs," he explained.
