Abstract	To describe existing placement services of public 2-year colleges in New York, questionnaires were mailed to the chief placement officer of 40 colleges, and on-site visits and interviews were held with placement officers of seven colleges. Returned questionnaires from 36 placement officers plus the interview data revealed that: (1) A total of 35 chief placement officers had some graduate training, with the most frequent area of specialization being student personnel administration, (2) Only six officers had any on-th-job training or supervision, (3) Most of the students who utilize the placement service do so to find permanent or part-time jobs, (4) Of the 35 colleges, 20 made no special efforts to serve the placement needs of minority students, and (5) Fourteen colleges mentioned cooperative efforts in placement with other colleges, most of which were in the form of visits to other campuses and discussion of common problems. Recommendations were made concerning the need for adequate administrative support, providing on-the-job training, increased cooperative efforts, and conducting evaluation research on placement. (SB)
