Civil War revisited at Kearney Park
By Tim Springer
The guns of the Civil War thundered into action during this
past weekend as units from the Union and Confederate armies
engaged in "mortal combat." The military reenactment was the
fifth annual "Civil War Revisited" living history event at Kearney
Park. ^
"The Cfvil War Revisited," (TCWR) is a weekend-long event
that provides attendees the chanoe to view, interact with and leam
about the nation's costliest war. It gives students of all ages an
educational opportunity, according to the Event jChairman John
Moffat
"[Attendees] can tour the [Union and Confederate] camps,
they can talk to any of the historical figures, they see the battle, we
have period crafts people who show them how they built and did
pottery and did some other things during the period," Moffat
said, "So this whole thing is a living history museum essentially,
that they can walk through."

Study finds older grads
making bigger Sucks
College Press Service
WASHINGTON-Putting off
college for a few years after high
school may not be such a bad
idea, suggests a new report from
the American Council on Educa¬
tion.
Adults who earn their college
degrees after the age of 30 enjoy
higher salaries than younger
graduates, according to the ACE
report
The study, "Labor Foipe Par-
ticipation of Older Graduates,"
states that graduates older than
30 were making $28,961 one year
after graduation, While the
younger graduates were pulling
in $21*905.
Mategraduate5over30earned
$32,170 annually aftef gradua¬
tion, and younger male gradu¬
ates took home $23,441, com¬
pared to a salary of $20,535
earned by their younger coun¬
terparts.
In 1991, about one-sixth of
the nation's college graduates
were 30 years old or older. Of
these, 60 percent were women.
While the rate of employment
for graduates was nearly the
same-71 percent for younger
graduates and 73 percent for
older graduates, some of the dis¬
parity m salaries comes from the
type of employment in which
tne grads were engaged one year
after graduation.
Thirteen percent of younger
graduates indicated on the ACE
survey that a college degree was
not a requirement for their cur¬
rent job. Only 4 percent of gradu¬
ates over the age of 30 fell into
this category.
