of the Survival Center's Ocean Symposium, which ends today.
Sea law expert will speak
Large ocean-mining companies threaten
"international chaos,” accuses the field director
of the non-profit United Nations Association.
Jim Blew says a treaty that sets international
ocean rights and responsibilities needs to be
ratified and implemented before they "scuttle" it.
Companies such as U S. Steel and Lockheed
Aircraft Corp. focus on profits from the mineral
rich seabed to the detriment of overall U S.
interests, Blew says. Those interests include
continental-shelf oil, fish-stock management,
international environmental standards and U S.
naval mobility.
Blew will speak tonight at 7:30 in Room 110
Fenton Hall as part of an Ocean Symposium
sponsored by the Survival Center.
Blew accuses the mining companies of “try
ing to scuttle” the still-uncompleted international
Law of the Sea Treaty.
The United Nations Conference on the Law of
the Sea has worked for a decade to organize
international ocean law, and expects to complete
its work this year, says Marc Smiley of the Survival
Center.
Tonight’s speech will highlight duties and
obligations of the treaty, which Blew has followed
for four years, Smiley says.
PE, health, parks graduates
find jobs after tough workout
Editor's note: This article is
part of a series on the job-mar
ket success of University
graduates.
By CHARLENE BELL
Of the Emerald
Jobs in physical education,
health education or parks and
recreation can be summed up in
one word — tight.
But for the graduate willing to
look hard enough, jobs can be
found. And there’s good news
for those who don’t subscribe to
the old belief that all P.E. majors
become high school coaches.
Lois Youngen, head of the
P.E. department’s under
graduate program, predicts a
decrease in the number of
graduates who go into teaching.
Current placement center
figures indicate that 22 out of
the 27 seniors who registered
with the center for teaching po
sitions were employed within
the year. Jobs also are opening
in the private sector.
“The old image of the health
spa has been broadened to the
present sports and fitness com
plexes, which now employ a lot
of science-oriented P.E. majors
who take positions as athletic
trainers,” Youngen says.
According to 1980 statistics,
only 3.6 percent of the regis
tered seniors took athletic
training positions, but those po
sitions are available at all school
levels and on professional and
recreational teams.
Research work is available for
science-oriented P.E
graduates in new disciplines
such as biomechanics — com
puter analysis of body
movement.
Youngen says P.E. majors
must be willing to travel out of
state for employment. Out-of
state requests for graduates
outnumber job openings in
Oregon, where the median
salary for students with a four
vear degree is $10,000.
ARE THERE JOBS
AFTER GRADUATION?
I
For health education
graduates, the job situation is
much the same — jobs are there
if graduates will accept entry
level positions
Salaries aren’t outstanding,
especially in public health, says
health education Prof. Buzz
Pruitt, but teaching jobs have
been “very accessible" for
health-ed majors.
In fact, 70 percent of the sen
iors who registered with the
placement center in 1980 land
ed jobs in secondary-school
teaching.
But health majors should be
prepared to move out of Oregon
for employment. Pruitt an
ticipates that Pres. Reagan s
budget cuts will eliminate many
public health opportunities.
The near future looks par
ticularly good for health
teachers willing to combine
their degree with other study
areas, Pruitt says. The industrial
sector may provide public
health opportunities because of
the recent focus on worker
health.
For park and recreation
graduates, employment is not
difficult. "I can’t give hard, fast
figures, but we haven’t had a
J
problem with our people getting
jobs,” says Karl Cloninger,
coordinator of the park and
recreation field study program.
Park and recreation
graduates find jobs around the
country that range from park
employees to community
supervisors. Training exper
ience from a park and recrea
tion degree can provide job op
tions in human services, Clon
inger adds.
Other graduates can move
into “mid-management” posi
tions such as community
recreation supervisors or envir
onmental center employees, he
says.
Students with master’s de
grees sometimes find man
agement-level positions or work
in therapeutic recreation jobs
Cloninger says And doctoral
students often take college
teaching positions in combina
tion with a community service.
Undergrads can expect to
earn entry-level salaries ranging
from $12,000 to $16,000 yearly,
depending on job location,
Cloninger says. Master’s and
doctoral students will find
slightly higher salaries that also
vary according to location.
