The political scientists at the University of Michigan, Dearborn, concerned about what becomes of political science majors in today's job market, have completed a survey of the occupational status and quality of life of recent alumni. This paper examines the potential contributions of that survey as a model for future evaluations of political science programs and other liberal arts programs. In the paper, I will discuss the design of the study, its findings, and the lessons that might be useful to those who would wish to do such studies on their own campuses.DesignThe University of Michigan, Dearborn evaluation was done primarily by, and for the benefit of, the political science faculty. Thus, the evaluation was tailored to particular faculty interests and concerns.

THE problem of health services for children of school age is particularly timely in view of current interest in such services. The editors of this column have asked several authorities in this field to state their opinion of the objectives of a school health service and to describe practical methods of attaining these goals. The first two letters in the current issue deal with this subject; other letters on health services for children of school age will be published in subsequent issues. Dr. James L. Wilson is professor of pediatrics at the University of Michigan; Dr. Jessie M. Bierman is professor of maternal and child health at the University of California School of Public Health; and Dr. Dorothy B. Nyswander is professor of Public Health Education in the same school, and the author of "Solving School Health Problems, the Astoria Demonstration Study," the Commonwealth Fund, 1942. The last two letters are from Dr. Albert D. Kaiser, health officer of Rochester, New York. Dr. Kaiser has described the program of the Council of Rochester Regional Hospitals for improving medical care in the 11 counties served by the member hospitals in the June issue of this column. His first letter in this issue describes how these services might be extended if additional funds were available. His second communication serves to make clear what was meant by "institutes conducted for . . . governing boards" as described in the eighth paragraph of his first letter.
