Mark Giauque reportingYou've paid a lot of money to get your son or daughter through college, now there's evidence it all may be worth while.
The job outlook is the best it's been in a decade according to the Department of Workforce Services. Economist Mark Knold says from registered nurses, to teachers, to engineers, to those with two-year technical degrees, the job market in Utah looks good, good enough to keep many of the 20-thousand who'll graduate in coming weeks here in Utah.

Knold says recruiters have been on college campuses in higher numbers, looking for grads from many areas.
