问题     In the past, people who graduated from college felt proud of their academic achievements and confident that their degree would help them to find a good job.
    However, in the past four years the job market has changed dramatically. This year’ s college graduates are facing one of the worst job markets. For example, Ryan Stewart, a graduate of san Jose State University, got a degree in religious studies, but he has not gotten any job offers. He points out that many people already working are getting laid off and don’ t have jobs, so it’ s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.
    Four years ago, the future looked bright for his class of 2006. There were many high - tech("dotcom")job opportunities, graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as health insurance and paid vacations. However, "Times have changed. It’ s a new market. " according to ah officer of the university.
    The officer says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several part - time jobs, and they majored in fields that are still paid well, such as accounting or nursing.
    Even teaching is not a secure profession now. Ryan Stewart wanted to be a teacher, but instead he will probably go back to school in order to become a college teacher. He thinks college teaching could be a good career even in a bad economy.
    In conclusion, these days a college degree does not automatically lead to a good job with a high salary. Some students can only hope that the value of their degree will increase in the future.
