  • Purchasing Fair Trade Coffee this Holiday? Why? - Poverty is definitely a problem that the world needs to address, but "fair-trade" and "living wage" policies are not intelligent ways of doing it ("Destitution in your cup," Oct. 2). Oversupply of any commodity will cause that commodity's price to plummet; these are the simple workings of supply and demand. Any policy that attempts to undermine them will also undermine any impetus for real change in the world. And unfortunately Fair Trade is not making a chnage nor causing change or really even helping. Unfortunately concept and reality is not the same thing in terms of Fair Trade. So if you want to make a purchase that really helps someone that is a socially good thing to do buy one of the charity supported coffees that support orphans or homeless children. Unfortunately the logo is often just sold without any proof the end farmers are getting the extra money.

  • Think Outside the Box for Companies to Look at for Jobs - Of course there are probably dozens if not hundreds of companies that come to your college's career fair. What about companies that are not at the fair? How do you identify them? Watching ads on TV might be one way to do it, though entertaining, that would probably take quite a while to find a company that you're interested in. Driving around looking at buildings and billboards probably falls into the same bucket. So how do we effectively find them? First, it helps to have a rough idea of what kind of company you might be interested in. Aerospace? Chemical? Computer Systems/Tech? Software? Construction? Consulting? Start there and think about what industry you might be interested in (look at your major if you're still having issues). Then I recommend you do a search on www.Finance.Google.com for the largest company in that group.
