Your Say

As I read above from another reader, when I graduated from undergrad school in the middle 1970s, one could get a job anywhere. Psych majors? Music majors? Perfoncd Musi? Poli Sci? Didnt matter.

What the empolyer wanted to see was that you SAT through those classes and WROTE those papers and did it all. We were able to get a toe hold on the middle class just from this alone. A college BA was a sign that you were COMPETENT; that you could conduct research and write.

Sorry, young folks, but that's the was it was in San Francisco in 1974. This privilege was never granted to illegals or anyone else in the country who wasn't a citizen.
