We may have black clouds overhead, but its not as if the sky has fallen. People were hearing such horror stories about the job market and the economy that they were getting far too paranoid about it, says Elaine Stover, associate director of Career Services at Arizona State University. ASU did not experience as may recruiter cancellations as were typically being reported nationwide. With 42,000 students, Stover notes, an employer who is going to cancel some of its recruiting visits is very likely going to cancel trips to smaller schools first. But, hey, the business pages of newspapers and magazines are filled with C Du Twmg TaUt Rtsauiank, predictions today tliat turn out to be completely wrong tomorrow.

Heres Your Health A Service To n , J of the Prevention Program The following facts on alcohol consumption by college students are taken from Alcohol Practices, Policies and Potentials of American Colleges and Universities, (February 1991) a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health Administration publication. How to lower the cost of your college education? In the lifetime of the presently-en-rplle- d college student body of America, about the same number will eventually die from alcohol-relate- d causes as will get advanced degrees, masters and doctorates combined. A 1990 national survey has demonstrated that college students generally have a higher drinking prevalence than their noncollegiate counterparts. The survey indicated that 4 percent of all college students will drink more than two drinks per day every day next month. The average annual alcoholic beverage consumption for the general college population is over 34 gallons per year per person. For the more than 12 million college students in the United States, the annual consumption of alcoholic beverages totals well over 430 million gallons. Alcohol consumption, abuse and its consequences have been estimated to cost our society $86 billion annually. To put this economic cost into the perspective of higher education, consider that it is only slightly less money per year as is received by all American institutions of higher education from all sources. With respect to the campus life itself, the typical student will probably spend more moneyfor alcoholic beverages than for textbooks. On a representative campus, the student body expenditure for alcohol about $446 per student will far exceed the total operating costs for running the library. The total annual cost of scholarships and fellowships that all the colleges and universities of America provide to students is but a fraction of the $5.5 billion money college students spend yearly in school. So, how do you lower the cost of your college education? Its easy -stop purchasing alcoholic beverages as often and in much smaller quantities than you are now. You could save hundreds per year and be healthier for out-of-poc- it Ginny Mead, coordinator of the Alcohol and Drug Prevention and Education Program holds an M.S. in educational psycholTo find out about support groups, or if you ogy. have any questions on substance abuse, contact Mead in Shaw 1 10, ext. 144.
