Abstract: This paper outlines the information contained in a booklet published by Eastman Kodak Company entitled “A Survey of Motion Picture, Still Photography, and Graphic Arts Instruction.” The material for this publication was compiled by Dr. C. William Horrell of Southern Illinois University. Dr. Horrell surveyed appropriate schools regarding various areas including courses, staff and employment of graduates. He compared the responses with those received in a similar study he made in 1968. This comparison revealed a great increase in photography-related curriculum, while also showing that facilities and staff are not growing accordingly. From the latest survey, Dr. Horrell discovered that schools lose track of many graduates when they leave school. Of the ones who did report back, many have gone into some kind of photography-related work. However, many have also found that their college preparation has had little direct bearing upon their employment. Feeling that this situation could be alleviated by improved communication between colleges and industry, Dr. Horrell suggests establishing standards that would benefit students and industry alike. Students could then prepare for areas of employment wherein their skills can be properly utilized.
