Students Work due to Economic Needs Rising prices and devaluation of the dollar have affected student's economic situation. The need for extra cash has forced a large number of students to aquire part-time employment. Not all students are able to suffice this need due to the shortage of jobs in the Culpeper area. The shortage along with lay-offs and pay cuts is a result of the ever increasing national inflation problem. Employers don't need student help at the present, because in most instances they find it dif- ficult to pay employees that they already have. Students who have jobs now should consider themselves fortunate because they are a privileged few. Most businesses seem pleased with their part-time help, but they cannot afford to hire additional help. Food market worker. Roger Hitt, assists a cus- tomer with his purchase.
