LETTERS to the editor

There are 220 colleges in the United States that have graphics programs. These schools have 4,000 students enrolled in the programs. About 1,000 students will graduate as the class of 2009. Granted, not all 60,000 open positions require a graphics education. There are many non-core positions such as accounting, information technology, facility engineering, clerical, material handling, etc., that can be filled with a general education background.
