FLAMSTEAD CHALLENGE The Benefit of a College Education in a Postwar World THELMA LEWIS, 1945 At the present time there is no great demand for a college education in procuring a job. The reason is that there is a manpower shortage for skilled and unskilled labor, the unskilled outnumbering the skilled workers. Factories are willing to hire untrained workers and train them to fill various positions. When this war is over the picture will be a very different one. The servicemen will be returning home to their old occupations. Not only will the present workers be out of a job, but the servicemen will be given preference in the remaining positions. Also, when the war ends there will not be such a great demand for labor. There will not be such a great demand for labor. There will be the task of rehabilitating the warftorn countries, but this cannot compare with production at present. Employers are going to look for the cream of the crop when they seek employees. This means that they want men with the best knowledge of the work to be done. Not only does a college education give one a better chance because of his book learning, but he also gains a wealth of riches in his contacts while in college. This supplies him with agood background for getting along in society, and it gives him an opportunity to mingle with all types and races of people. To be able to know people and to understand them is one of the greatest achievements in life. These are some of the reasons why one should consider college. It will mean that he must put his full attention on it and work his hardest, but I am sure that he will not regret one single part of it. Race Prejudice Race prejudice is a very serious problem facing our country today. New York state is proud to be the first state in the union to pass a law regarding this problem. It is called the IvesfQuinn bill which forbids any employer to discriminate against any applicant for a job because of his race, creed, or color. Strongly supported by Negro, Jewish, and Catholic groups, it was opposed by some employers and unions who said it was unenforceable, and by some who feared it would increase intolerance, not extinguish it. In many parts of our country Negroes are not allowed to hold any civic position. Abraham Lincoln once stated that all men are created equal regardless of their race, creed, or color. And the sooner people realize the truthfulness of this statement, the quicker peace will come to the world. In the past, the colored race has given us several educators, scientists, and musicians. Who knows what the colored people have in their power to offer in the advancement of American culture if given the opportunity? You will find that in this global war, negro and whites are fighting side by side for the ideals of our country. Should they not be able to enjoy the fruits of peace on equal footing? JOAN GOLDTHWAITE, 1946
