Many wonder, given the state of the economy and a currently poor jobs outlook in many sectors, if college students will be able to find jobs upon graduation. However, there has been a level of optimism in our gener- ation’s ability to adapt to the changes ahead. “Obviously it is not the dot com days anymore. New college grads are having to be very resourceful,” Coon said. “But there are opportunities in America for jobs. Now it’s all about getting through this period and to be in a good position when the economy starts to take off again. The good news is that today’s college grads have the potential to be on the front end of the next upswing of our economy. That’s a good place to be.” PowerFilm, Inc.
