Wake Forest Students Who Earn Their College Expenses, June 28, 1923

Many Students Earn Their College Expense

The time has come in North Carolina when young men and young women can get an education who have the energy and the industry and stick-to-it-tiveness to pursue a course of study. At Wake Forest 36 pupils either make all or one-half their board by waiting on the table. This condition prevails to a greater or lesser extent in every school in the State. There are student pressing clubs which require the services of several ambitious students. In all, there are 112 workers at Wake Forest; some of them are clerks.

A group of self-helpers are those boys who “batch.” There are 29 of them this spring. Another group of workers are the student assistants; there are 21 of these in various departments.
