College Students, Earnings

That 500 Columbia students earned $780,
900 toward their college expenses last
year gives an idea of the development
of self-support among college youth. The
figures indicate average earnings of $240,
derived in the main from tutoring, but
gained also from such varied occupations
as hotel clerk, elevator runner, renting
agent, subway platform man. telephone
operator, waiter, etc, says the New
York World.
The participa ton of girl Students of
Barnard and the TEACHERS college in
self-supporting work and their compar-
ative incomes have special interest One
earned $l25 teaching modern languages
during the summer, while another
cleared 1922 as a stenographer, and a
third made, s247 as a restaurant cashier.
These earnings approximate to those of
male students and have bearing on the
question of equal pay for equal work"
They illustrate also the large returns
of commercial pursuits. viii the prac-
teal experience of college girls in maxi
ing a living and their acquaintance with
the actual conditions of work tend to
turn them from teaching and other pro-
fessonal vocations to business? They
already have the example of male stu
dents to influence them.
