1 Warren E. Snyder has been "College students were hired to

chairperson for the Hurst's
business and management depar-
tment since 1977 and is also a co-
op I coordinator. Priori to .his
coming to the college, he was em-
ployed in the marketing division
at the First National Bank of Pen-
nsylvania here in Erie.
E 'I'm sure you could say I'm
sold on cooperative education,"
Snyder explained. I "I was in-
volved in the designing and im-
plementation of this program and
was J acquainted with it long
before the college approved i t "
E Some of the employers who are
supporting co-op programs are
Dahlkempers, jUnion Bank,
Mutual Savings and Loan, J.C.
Penny's and Home's - to name a
few. ES IrSfSe § S l P I P i
DuringI intercession, J Snyder
took a group of students to New
York City. "I noticed many dif-
ferences between Erie and New
York City -1 the climate, the
people, the food, the culture and
traditions. J* But one important
area which was not different was
jobs and employment," Snyder
said. n P ' 55j 3 fij
"The employers I spoke to in
New York and Erie stressed the
importance and need of job ex-
perience to obtain future em-
ployment and aid in setting
career goals," he added. 'These
employers* indicated that the
work experience need not
necessarily be in the student's
related
4
field. £ *V»^--'»*.SaE
The.simple fact that the
student!took the time to gain
some experience would be an in-
dication that the student desires
to get ahead and put to use some
of the skills acquired in college,"
hesaid.HjgSs? §§j&jBgEJ|
I "Many ' p e r s o n n e l J ad-
ministrators believe that co-op
education is an excellent way to
gain that valuable work ex-
perience prior to leaving college
for that first bigcjob," Snyder
continued, m f 1 |•
3 "I agree with these executives
and administrators because I
have seen the value of on-the-job
experience through my em-
assist me in my duties and they
were given projects such as con-
ducting marketing analysis of
our marketing area or obtaining
customer opinions of our produc-
ts. The student would actually be
part of the daily activities and
operations! of the [marketing
division and thus, r would gain
valuable I knowledge and ex-
perience which many used in
their future employment. _•&* >
w "Cooperative education can be
as beneficial to students in any
program from \ the arts to the
career programs. Some of these
benefits are gaining practical ex-
perience, i applying academic
theory to actual work experience,
applying | and developing J in-
terpersonal skills, developing a
degree of confidence in oneself,
providing an opportunity to view
a chosen career field, providing
the student with income while at-
tending school, and aid in the
student'sjj obtaining| a job after
graduation. For many employers
often offer the student a fulltime
position with the company after
the cooperative experience is
completed or upon graduation."
«, "So," Snyder concluded,
"cooperative education can be
the difference between obtaining
just a job, or obtaining that
desired # position f after
graduation." HHRnNfir^v^

of last week's Behrend game, in
which the Lakers were detected
committing twice as many per-

or noticing every infraction
leading to numerous turnovers.
However, with their superior
talent, the Lakers were able to
maintain a lead for nearly all of
the first half, despite the of-
ficiating, and after 20 minutes led
