Grants, jobs help A students afford U-D V Us The Division of Cooperative Education and Place- ment, better known as the Placement Center, is U-D's answer to the Job Corps. Director Donald C. Hunt and his staff now handle about 14,000 applicants annually, nearly 5,000 in the fall semester alone. About 600 companies look to the Placement Center each year in search of prospective employees. Representatives are constantly at U-D to interview graduating seniors at the invitation of the Center. Operating from the same office complex is the Office of Financial Aids which helps students with the financing of their college education. A staff of five, headed by John Tomey, is responsible for the administration of all financial grants, loans and scholarships. All applications for private, local, state and federal aid are processed by the department. Out of all students who apply, 89 percent are granted some sort of aid.
