Harvard Students To Vote on Divestment From Israel in Inaugural HUA Election Survey
The Princetonian has compiled some interesting statistics concerning the present occupations of men who graduated from Princeton last June. Although Princeton is a church college, but eight of the class are studying for the ministry; these are all at the Princeton Theological Seminary. One man is already actively engaged in evangelical work. The law, as might be expected, attracts more men than any other one calling; 33 of the 117 members of the class are now studying law at Harvard, Columbia, the University of Pennsylvania, or in private offices. Fifteen are studying medicine and the same number are teaching. Eight are pursuing graduate work at Princeton or abroad, and six are fitting themselves to become electrical engineers.
Fifteen of the men are in business, three others are traveling, and nine are doing nothing. Only one member of the class has entered journalism. Of the remaining four, one is an electrician, one a chemist, one a surveyor, and one is in an architect's office.
Not quite half of the class, or about 48 per cent. have chosen the profession. About 13 per cent are teaching and the same proportion are in business. All of the class except about 10 per cent. are actively engaged in work of some sort.
