Seniors earn credit, money and education With spiraling inflation, and the highest unemployment figures since the Great Depression, coupled with a normal teenager's need for financial independence, many students found themselves holding down part time jobs. Those seniors working part time found that they could earn money and class credits too. They soon became pros at dealing with Work Experience forms and Work Experience Counsel- or john Marcinko. The reasons students work vary tremendously. Some work to provide a little extra pocket money for spending on the weekends. Others work to maintain an automobile, a task one senior likened to support- ing a family. Others worked for a more admirable reason, to help their parents pay for the cost of their college education. Not only has inflation hit the retail market, but the academic market as well. Tuitions, dorm fees, boarding costs and text book prices have more than doubled since the late I960,S. Most unfortunately and also most commendably, some students found themselves in the position of helping with the family income. When General Motors' South Gate plant closed the parents of some students found their income more than cut in half. Students in those families soon found how much their part time job pin money could help their families in that time of need.
