BUREAU At YALE
"A Job for Every Yale Man" Is
Aim Of College

New Haven, March Ia job for
every Yale man is the slogan of the
new employment departm ent just au-
thorized by the corporation of Yale
university The campaign through
out the country to put 81 white star
in place of a blue one" is not only
being vigorously carried out at Yale,
where every undergrad and in
structOr is given every opportunity
to return to his pre-War work, but
the university has even assumed the
question of employment for every one
Of it's graduates in the service
we'll. Over 5000 Yale men entered
son1e form Of active service during
the war, besides the many whose eff
forts were necessarily limited to in
active though important work Yale
is proud of these thousands of her
sons and has kept close record of
their splendid work, of the hundreds
of decorations they have received, of
the cOmmendable service they have
given, of the thousands of commits
sions and promotions won, and of the
nearly two hundred OF it's finest grad
yates, whose names Yale mourns on
its honor roll. But Yale university
is not satisfied merely with keeping
now plans in view of the emergency
conditions in business today. to find
for every one of these graduates re-
turning from service, a position
worthy Of his record.
Already the names have begun to
pour in at the university, not only
from Yale men seeking the promised
jobs but also from employers
throughout the country who want for
their business men who have proved
them selves in college and in war. The
employment departments ADVERTISE
ment in the Yale Alumni Weekly
asking Yale graduates How many
demobilized Yale men will you place
in your business and among your
friends?" is daily receiving replies
and approval in very concrete form.
Some idea of the character of the
undertaking is to be had from a study
of the classified column begun this
week in the Alumni Weekly. Execu-
tive assistants of proved ability, traf-
fic manager for large jobbng or man
ufacturing concern, recent graduate
Ito start in at the bottom of your
business business executive with
unusually successful record--salary,
$4,000, engineers, electrical, civil,
men are seeking positions. Then
there are also the promising openings
for which trained men are wanted;
factory superintendent wanted by
Eastern manufacturer, inspector for
| large corporation In the State of In
diana, and school and college oppor-
tunities for teachers and administra-
tive assistants, and others.
The Yale employment department
| is trying to, make it's facilities so
| widely known among Yale men and
| their friends that anyone needing a
| good man for his business or any Yale
| man 1oking for satisfa Glory employ
| ment will turn to the university as
! the natural agency for him to work
| through. Among the organizations
| and institutions with which the Office
| will work in cooperation is the
| American University Union in Europe,
| which has proved to be such an i'm
| portant headquarters and clearing
| house for American college men in
| the service overseas. Twenty or more
Yale men have been reporting daily
to the Yale bureau at the Paris head
! quarters Of the Union. The univer-
! %ity will seek to connect any of these
men seeking employment with definite
positions which they can enter I'M
mediately upon their return home.
Already the machinery Of this de
| partment is in motion. A firm which
| has secured a Yale man within the
| past week has sent in a very favor
able report with the declaration that
they want "as many more like him as
you can send.' There is good reason
for believing that the new office will
succeed in living up to its aim Of "a
Job TOR every Yale man" and that
aNery Yale man will n" ION the job.
