THE WORK STUDY PHASE WILL PROVIDE THE STUDENT WITH (1) AN INCOME WHILE HE IS IN SCHOOL, (2) A SERIES OF SUCCESSFUL WORK EXPERIENCES TO INCREASE CONFIDENCE IN HIS ABILITY TO HOLD A JOB, AND (3) WORK EXPERIENCES RELATED TO HIS ACADEMIC PROGRAM. A SURVEY IN THE NEWARK AREA INDICATED THAT GRADUATES OF THE PROGRAM COULD FIND EMPLOYMENT AND THAT THE COOPERATIVE WORK PROGRAM WOULD BE WIDELY ACCEPTED.
