QUESTIONNAIRES MAILED TO STUDENT EMPLOYEES

WILL ISSUE REPORT AT END OF THIS MONTH

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Questionnaires have been sent out this week to 190 men in the College employed under the Temporary Student Employment Plan in an effort to determine the effectiveness of the employment. This work is being done by the Student Council Employment and Scholarship Committee, headed by Raymond S. Dennett '35, and John B. Bowditch '37.

Questions Asked

Questions asked in this poll of employees are: 1.) Do you prefer the Student Employment Plan to employment outside the University? Why? 2.) Do you feel the hours too long for the compensation? (If so please specify the job or type of job you hold);

3.) Do you feel the work you are doing sufficiently useful to justify the expense?

4.) Do you in general feel satisfied with the plan as it affects you? If not please explain your objections. Can you suggest any improvements?

Effect on Academic Work

5.) Do you feel satisfied with the basis upon which the jobs are awarded? How great and what kind of an effect do you think this job has upon your academic work?

Further a form letter has been sent to 75 employers of these students in the various libraries, museums, and other departments of the University asking for their opinion of the usefulness of the work done.

Joint Report

A report will be issued at the end of this month covering the problem of scholarship and employment and their correlation.
