Over all classes of workers, however, there was a decrease in both full-time and part-time work. Ontario and Alberta made up most of the losses, with all other provinces largely unchanged.
Other economists were also scratching their heads, especially after the data agency last month made headlines for initially reporting the wrong jobs number.

Why should the college find a job for the graduate? Is that the college's responsibility?
I agree that there are no guarantees...what do they say? The most important question that a philosophy major is likely to encounter is" Will you have fries with that?"

I know it is part of the process, but it is not part of the "deal". Therefore the expectation of college finding them a job is ... seems to be just another form of the sense of entitlement that people feel these days.
I am entitled to something, I do not have to work for it. It is someone else's responsibility to see to it that I get it.
BTW: I love the lumberjack song! Love Monty! Long time fan here....

A person who attends college is, in effect, an adult. That person makes their choice of majors, chooses classes in order to satisfy the needs of the major and then fulfills the needs of the classes in order to graduate.
A college or university has the responsibility to provide an education. No one will make that person attend classes. No one will make that person choose an appropriate major. It is all personal choice and responsibility.
Why, again, would it be the college's responsibility to find the graduate a job?

Post secondary education may not be for everybody, but based upon 25 years working for a university, all I can say is - you're wrong.
