SUNDAY. MAY 13, 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON rogress Being Made in Jackson B County Education Progress is being made in education in Jackson county. Young people are staying in scnool longer and getting more education, presumably, than the same age group got 1U years ago. The fact that there are ad vantages that flow from more complete schooling is rapid ly seeping through to the cur rent student body. They have come to realize, as their par ents already had, that edu cation pays off at least fi nancially. Gathered In Census Figures gathered during the recent national census and just released show that the amount ot formal education acauired bv the avpraop .Tank. son county resident, by the lime ne lias reached age 25, is 11.6 years. In 1950 it was 10.7 years. That is a greater amount of , schooling than was reported in oiner pans or tne united oiaies, iu.o years. The tendency nt (ho nr ent generation of sliirinniu in remain in school longer is evident In most sections of tne country. Many of them, nowever, are continuing for reasons other than the mere desire for intellectual devel opment, it appears. Impressed With Reports They have become impress- ea Dy tne many reports eman ating from government and industry that education and joo opportunities go hand-in-hand. One recent study, by the University of Michigan, shows that more than 33 per cent or mose wno work for others and do not have a high school diploma found them selves unemployed at some time during the past five years. By contrast, only 16 per cent or inose with some training beyond high school were similarly affected. Some specific figures on how a person's earning ca paclty varies with the amount of schooling he has under his belt are given by the U.S Department of Labor. Lifetime Income In Its report on the money value of an education, it lists $182,000 as the average life time income for a man who is an elementary school gradu ate, $258,000 for a high school graduate and $435,000 for a college graduate. Residents of Jackson coun ty, with their educational lev- fl 8.per cent h'Sher than in the United RtaiM 0na.Bii may look forward to better imanciai rewards, on that 0513.
