year while he was serving as a consultant on welfare reform for the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare in Washington, D.C. His book discusses the Program for Aid to Families

...JOB INFORMATION SERIES BEGINS NOV. 13...A series of Job Information Days, designed to
familiarize Evergreen seniors with the requirements of various employment markets and to
provide them with advice on job search techniques, was announced today by Gail Martin, Coordinator of College Placement. The series, involving monthly campus visits by representatives
from eight major job market categories, begins Nov. 13, with personnel from various city,
county, state and federal governmental agencies scheduled to meet with Evergreen seniors.
Representatives from business and industry will visit Evergreen on Dec. 4, followed
by employment personnel in the fields of environment and planning on Jan. 29, communications
on Feb. 12, arts on Mar. 5, social services on Apr. 9, education on Apr. 30 and counseling
on May 14.
The Job Information program began at Evergreen last Spring Quarter when 50 employers
from major job markets visited the college campus. "We've now converted to a series of presentations rather than concentrating our efforts on one day in an attempt to make the program
more comprehensive and to allow for more detailed coverage of each of the major individual
job markets," Martin said.
