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.

Mark Knold: "The overall level of the Utah economy itself is not something that should drive those students out."

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