purchased the former goodman furniture company building with plans to convert it into a laboratory research and storage facility the proposed research facility will operate in the private sector outside the university but will maintain dose ties with lehigh by em ploying students and faculty as well as outside lab technicians kanofsky said you would expect to find working on a project in one

interested in using students of all different fields because if you're talking about activities in the com mercial sector you clearly require business by chris palmeri assistant managing editor editor's note this is the first of a two-part series on the career planning and placement center although the career planning and placement center is getting a face lift next year which should make the christmas-saucon office a nicer place to visit some students remain skeptical some seniors particularly those in the arts college claim the career center isn't doing enough to attract companies to lehigh as senior lori soderlind put it they're going to make it a more comfortable place for arts students to sit and not get jobs eugene seeloff the director of career planning and placement disagrees he said the career center is doing all it can to attract businesses seeloff claims arts students are not receiving as many interviews or job offers as their business and engineering counterparts for two reasons the first industries that typically hire liberal arts students simply don't recruit on college campuses the second liberal arts students aren't doing enough to market themselves for the business world a great mound of evidence seems to prove that seeloff is right student criticism could very well come from a lack of un derstanding of the career center and what its role is in the job search seeloff maintains that the center's purpose is not to simply find jobs for seniors we are not an employment agency that finds you a job and then takes a percentage of your pay check for doing it according to seeloff the placement center should be looked at as a classroom in which students can learn job-hunting strategies and pick up information about various careers it's not our place to force students into interviews and force them to get jobs he said we're only here to help them in their job search seeloff said his office has a dual purpose as a placement center it coordinates employer visits schedules interviews and gives students job leads as a career planning center it provides students with up-to-date literature on careers gives them in terviewing tips and even critiques their resumes according to seeloff the placement center tries to create a supportive at mosphere for job hunters but it is not pur job to make sure every senior has a job there are no guarantees nor is it the placements center's job to get companies to come to lehigh seeloff admitted that the placement center does not see placement page 12 t he brown and white 215)861-4181
