Brigham Young University. Employment Office
The Employment Office was set up to aid students find jobs on campus. It took over these responsibilities in 1967 as the Placement Center was growing so large. In 1969, University Personnel Services was created to oversee the Employment Office. In 1985 the Employment Office was then listed as overseen by Placement and Employment Services to become more related to the Placement Center. The manager of the Employment Office was Donald R. Lyman (1967-1984).
