One Working Student Don Strange gains valuable on-the-job training in engineering at Continental Can Company. Since the University of Nebraska at Omaha is a commuter campus, and almost three-quarters of its student population hold part-time jobs, it is in order to acknowledge at least one of these working students. Donald D. Strange is just one of the UNO part-time ... or full time ... or perhaps just long time students. He is an Electronic Engineer- ing Technology major, and has been working toward a degree since September 1968. Although Strange was never a bootstrapper, he started his college career on his off-duty time while stationed at Offutt Air Force Base. Upon discharge from the service. Strange elected to stay in the Omaha area until he achieved his goal — a degree. During the 72 Summer Session, Strange was offered an apprenticeship as an engineer at Continental Can Company Inc., in Omaha. He accepted the position, but continued to carry a full academic load. Acquiring on-the-job knowledge is just as important as for- mal education, said Strange. At the end of the 73 Summer Ses- sion, Don Strange will graduate and receive his degree. I feel it was worth it all, I feel I did the right thing, but 1 am looking forward to spending some leisurely evenings at home. Rod 16
