With a goal to better understand graduates’ immediate plans, Washington State University has emailed a questionnaire to 5,748 seniors asking about what they will do following graduation.
“It’s important to understand that this is the first time we have conducted a university-wide survey to gather this type of statistical data,” said Mary F. Wack, vice provost for academic engagement and student achievement.
“Are they stepping into a job? Entering graduate or professional school? Job searching? Joining the military, or a volunteer or service program? Taking time off? Staying in the U.S. or going abroad?

“When the pandemic hit, watching [police department] news and how it tried to adjust basically overnight in a number of places, I knew we had to do something to make it work,” he said.
