| "U.S. college graduates are facing one of the best job markets we've ever seen. Our country is transitioning to a knowledge-based economy, which places a premium on technology and education. The majority of the 5.3 million new jobs created in the last two and a half years in our country require a higher level of education and skill sets. So by graduating today, you have taken the first step to a bright future. The more you invest in yourselves through education and training, the more the new knowledge economy will reward you.” |
