Extractions: Clergy - Penitent Confidentiality Gerald L. Zelizer This year, when the holidays are being celebrated against a backdrop of national sadness and apprehension, many Americans are leaning more heavily on their religious leaders for comfort. But parishioners streaming into places of worship in search of succor and calm are increasingly apt to see another layman conducting services rather than a member of their faith's clergy. A shortage of ordained religious leaders has led to an increasing number of such services across the country - a phenomenon that often leaves services prone to error and lacking in symbolic authority. The trend is probably most obvious in the Catholic Church. A 2-year study by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops found that 58,000 priests served 46.6 million Catholic laity in 1965. Today, there are 20% fewer priests for one-third more parishioners. The supply of clergy has declined in Protestant denominations and in Judaism, too. Alan Klass, president of Mission Growth Ministries of Kansas City, Mo., and a manpower expert, found that in 1987, within the Lutheran Missouri Synod only 7% of churches were seeking pastors. Now, he explains, "There is a supply problem. Fourteen percent of churches are searching and another 11% have given up." In the Episcopal Church within the past few years, vacancies increased from 400 to 650 monthly. Rev. James Wilson, executive director of church deployment,. says, "What used to be a problem for Wyoming and Montana is now a problem for everybody."

The Psychology department allows students to study a broad spectrum of issues concerning human nature and functioning from a distinctly Christian worldview; it is concerned with the study of the mind, personality, and behavior in order to promote human welfare. With a Psychology Major as a foundation, your career options are wide open, thus, it will be important to clarify your particular interests, skills, values and personality preferences. You will want to consider which types of work settings and industries are more appealing to you, and which particular skills you prefer to use most of the time. It will be vitally important that you get practical experience in your areas of interest through internships or part-time jobs, as employers recruit many new college graduates as a result of these internship experiences.

So you've heard that the only jobs available to persons with B.A.'s in Psychology are in the realm of deep frying potatoes at McDonalds, summers spent filling potholes in Yakima Valley, or sealing packages of Mamma's Best elbow macaroni. Well, you've heard wrong. Although you cannot call yourself a "psychologist" and should not consider yourself a counselor without training beyond your B.A., you will find, as have generations of Psychology graduates before you, that there is a great variety of jobs where you can apply what you learned in your undergraduate major. A number of examples of these jobs are listed throughout this packet. SPU's programs in the liberal arts aim to develop in all students skills in problem solving, oral and written communication, and the critical thinking of analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Psychology is unique among liberal arts majors in that in addition to the above, Psychology also offers students opportunities to develop in-depth knowledge of human development and behavior, basic human relations skills, and solid statistical, research design, and measurement and evaluation competencies.

Extractions: What jobs or further education can one get with a BA in philosophy? Perhaps the best way to answer this question is to indicate what alumni of the Philosophy Department at Queens have done. In Fall 1998 the department surveyed 30 of its recent graduates and found that they had done a remarkably wide variety of things upon receiving their BA's: 2 went to graduate school in philosophy, 5 went to law school, 11 went to other professional schools (including schools of social work, clinical psychology, public policy, business, and graphic design), 4 went into school teaching, 4 went into business or industry, and 1 each went into government service, academic administration, museum work, and computer work. How many of the 30 alumni were employed at the time of our survey (in Fall 1998)? Twenty-four were employed20 full-time, 4 part-time. The 20 who were employed full-time included attorneys, paralegals in law offices, retailers, a U. S. Customs officer, Wall Street stock brokers, an accountant in an advertising firm, a psychotherapist supervising an outpatient drug-free program, a counselor for the vocational rehabilitation of Methadone clients, a case worker in a center for the elderly, a delivery worker, a member of the staff of Queens College, and an adjunct philosophy professor. The 4 who were employed part- time included a court reporter, a social worker, a member of the staff in the office of services for disabled students at Queensborough Community College, and someone of unspecified occupation.
