A law student who is caught cheating on an exam or paper stands a lower chance of being hired after graduation, or may not be allowed to take the bar exam Retired University official honored Kenneth Erickson, director of the Field Training and Service Bureau at the University's Col AUTO INSURANCE Low Monthly Rates Jerry Brown Ins. 1385 Oak 485-4010 2JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII lege of Education from 1967 to 1981, will receive a Distin guished Service Award Friday from the American Association of School Administrators He is one of five school ad ministrators who will receive the award at the AASA annual meeting in New Orleans The award is given to "retired school administrators who have brought honor to themselves IIIMIIIIHIIIMIIIIIIIIIUIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIlie (Need a Job?] If you’re like most students | | nearing graduation the answer is | | “yes”.
