Although few students look lorward to serving liiod. selling elothes or working on Campus lor minimum wage. part-time eampus jobs ean hate an upside. jobs that relate to speeiiie majors are ayailable and even some olileamptts jobs ean provide uselul skills lor the real world. The Student Employment Center at the University' sponsored a Student Employment ,lob Fair early in the lall semester in the Kansas Union. Sixteen employers from dilierent Univer- sity departments and 10 olileampus loeal employees were on hand lor students looking lor part-time work on earnptis. Ann Hartley. assoeiate direetor ol'Uniyersity' Career and Employ- ment Seryiees. said that the lair was down 10 employers doyyn from past years beeause of budget euts. making the lair more eompetitiye. Hartley said UCHS helped students eonneet with eareer-enhaneingjob opportunities through their Web site. www,ktt.c-ritt! Q uees. Although internships probably proyide the best opportunities to aequire eareer-related skills and resume-worthy eredentials. Hartley said that H01 all internships are lueratiye on the linaneial side. Many internships. she said. are unpaid. and students might need to take on a part-time-iob in addition to their internship. Hartley also suggested getting inyolyed with major-related eamptts organizations. Some student organizations. like the Uniyersity' Daily Kansan and Student Union Aetiyities. also olier paid leadership positions. Sometimes. though. stttdents are just trying to pay the bills by manning desks in the KU Libraries. the Hawk Shop or Daisy Hill dormitories. Whether helping in the deans oiiiee or preparing sandwiehes in the Weseoe deli. students were preparing themselyes lor life beyond the elassroom.

Wbilly santoro, Scottsdale, ariz., junior WOM ni S GREATEST S AN UWKCHES Weight-loss gimmicks are invading restaurants. grocery stores and last-food chains. The newest lad is the miracle diet that cuts carbs, the Atkins Diet. The Atkins Diet is so popular that t'CStzlt1l'zlllls and other food-related companies are modifying their menus and packaging to offer Atkins-friendly foods. With celebratics like jennifer Anniston saluti ng the low-carb diet. others were sure to follow suit. Subway was advertising low-carb wraps. TCI Fridays changed it menu to highlight low-carb options like the New York strip steak Michclob Ultra's entire marketing campaign rests on its low carbohydrate cottnt. ColdStone Creamery even offers a Sinlcss Sweat Cream. Roly Poly Sandwiches allows customers to recieve their wraps withotit a tortilla. as does Chipotle. Einstein Bros. and Creat Harvest Bread Company added lriw-carbohydrate options to their bagel and bread selections. The Atkins Diet argues that people will lose weight by loading up on proteins like meat and eggs. But avoiding all carbohydrates is more difficult than just ctttting down on pasta and white bread. Carbohydrates are lurking everywhere, even in fruits and vegetables. The Atkins Diet is the product ofthe late Dr. Robert Atkins. who first pttblished his ideas in 1972. Dr. Atkins theorized that because the body burns sugars for energy first. and all carbohydrates are simple sugars, fat is stored instead of burned. By cutting ottt carbs. the body is forced to use fat for fuel. Defenders swear by it, but it seems that this diet contains both benefits and risks. Ann Chapman. a registered dietieian at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that while you may initially lose weight. you will gain the weight back as soon as you discontinue the dict. She said she wasn't in favor ofthe diet beeattse it doesn't promote healthy eating because it docsn't allow lor enough vegetables or grains. Other adversaries say the emphasis on highilat Hmod will increase the risk of coronary heart disease and strain on kidneys. liver and bones, A modified version ofthe Atkins Diet is the South Beach Diet. which allows more ofthe vegetables and grains that Chapman recommended. Designed by Dr. Arthur Agaston. the diet encourages lean meat and low-fact cheeses. He promoted eating broccoli. peas. whole grains. pasta and beans. ln the South Beach Diet, though. eutting calories is key to successful weight loss. Both Atkins and the South Beach Diet induce ketosis lorweight-loss. lietosis causes the body to stop using carbohydrates lor energy and start consuming lat. Nutritionists offer these simple guidelines: Research a diet before trying it. excercise, be protein conscious. beware of cravings and listen to your body. Students can make zui appointment to see a dietieian at Watkins Memorial Health Center if they are interested in radically changing their diet. Wordsstaffreport t tt it
