Outlook for the class of ’09
NY Mag interviewed graduates from ten different schools on their outlook for the future. Check out the full pdf for fancy pie charts, quotes, and statistics.
I found that I’m pretty much on par with most of the answers to the survey, though some of the results were unexpected. Most have done or tried marijuana, cocaine, ’shrooms, or ecstacy. 57% never discuss sex with their parents. 58% have had unprotected sex. 42% do not have a job lined up. Finally, backup plans include ‘winging it’, and ‘Mom’s house.’
Though, the little tidbit about average starting salaries from the surveyed schools are depressing at best. NYU averages $32,000 per annum, making it $8,000 less than the next lowest average.
Sigh.
