Opening salary average is unchanged
Average starting salaries for college
graduates have remained nearly unchanged
over the past year, despite the stronger
economy and increased graduate recruit¬
ing activity, according to a survey.
The College Placement Council Salary
Survey was conducted nationwide for
1984-85. The survey information is broken
down by offers made to those with
bachelor's degrees, and trjose with master's
degrees.
For the second straight year, average
salary offers to those with bachelor's
degrees are running only two to three
increase is lower than the inflation rate.
Of the 25 disciplines surveyed, only
eight have posted gains of more than three
percent, while four have reported drops,
all of more than three percent. The highest
hike is in the health profession, marking a
15.4 percent increase over last year in
average starting salary offers.
As in recent years, petroleum engineer¬
ing topped the salary list, with chemical
engineering running second.
Petroleum engineering received an eight
percent salary offer increase over the past
year, the third highest increase among the.
25 disciplines surveyed, jumping to an
average of S2.660 a month.
A surprising lack of movement in start¬
ing salaries was observed in the field of
computer science. While this discipline
made strong gains in the number of offers,
the average salary of $2,051 was just 0.2
percent above the last year's figure.
The number of offers at the master's
level fell short of last year's figure. The
most notable exception was electrical
engineering, which reported
both the number of offers and starting
salary. The 5.1 percent salary increase
brought the average to $2,716.
No statistics pertaining specifically to
Fresno for 1984-85 were available. The
data for Fresno, however, was incorpo¬
rated in the national study and no major
diversions were expected from the results
indicated in the national survey, said Car¬
oline Williams, a CSUF career planning
counselor.

The seating could be moved to a differ¬
ent area in the stadium and the 50 yard -
line seats sold to visitors, he said.
Lengyel supported the statement, say¬
ing: "We're constantly reviewing our finan¬
cial position. If we fall short we'd have to
review all options."
The solution to the funding problem,
Lengyel believes, lies in students paying a
fixed fee of S6 a semester to be channeled
through the IRA fund to the athletic
department.
"We go through this problem with a
different student body president every
year," said Lengyel. "I understand the
studenu' frustration when the [IRA] say
they don't have any money, but if we had
an associated students fee of $6 a semester
and leave it as an IRATunded area, we
wouldn't have to go through this."
"It just depends on the constituency
who gets what every year," he said.
"The money is important, but more so
as a symbolic measure. We dont get any¬
thing given to us. It's a no-wuwituation for
both sides. I'd just like to see the whole
thing resolved so we don't have to
through it all the time," said Lengyel.
