is an attorney, legal journalist and REALTOR. He chairs the Mass. Bar Assn. Real Estate Section Council. Formerly, he was a newspaper/magazine reporter and Media Law adjunct at several Boston-area universities & colleges.
Mark Jurkowitz of the Project for Excellence in Journalism reports that the Univ. of Georgia "Annual Survey of Journalism & Mass Communications Graduates," which elicited responses from 2,500 recent grads, revealed that just slightly more than 60 percent of 2008 bachelor degree conferees had landed full-time jobs in the approximate six months since graduation.
The statistics are the lowest in the study's 23-year history and dim compared to 2007 grads, 70 percent of whom landed jobs in the field. The median salary of $30,000 for bachelor degree recipients remains unchanged from 2006 and 2007 figures.
Great picture! I always wondered what happened to Bob MacNamee.
