"I am currently enrolled in graduate school, doing both therapy and diagnostic testing with a multitude of age ranges. In therapy, I work with children, adolescents, adults and also provide marriage counseling, parent guidance and family therapy. Diagnostic testing gives me an opportunity to work with a wide range of referral questions such as learning difficulties, attention difficulties, gastric bypass evaluations, intellectual and personality measures. Lake Superior State University gave me a strong background in statistics and other courses that provided me with the skills to success and prepared me for graduate school."

Estimated Supply and Demand for College Graduates
Research is conducted each year by staff of the Collegiate Employment Research Institute at Michigan State University to provide current supply and demand information on placement of new college graduates. Positioning for each academic major was accomplished by checking employer requests for graduating students, identifying the placement rates for graduates in recent years, and consulting with all Career Services and Placement staff on their experiences with placement of graduating students and alumni. Here are the results of 1997.

"LSSU is a relatively small school and I believe for this reason I have received a better education. The close atmosphere as opposed to a larger university has provided me with an opportunity to become acquainted with my professors. The professors therefore have an opportunity to assist with problems fairly easily, especially in upper level classes. The classes are fairly small also which provides one on one conversations which is very helpful."
