Earning Patterns Of Mexican Workers In The Southern Region: A Focus On Nonmetro/Metro Distinctions, Rogelio Saenz
Earning Patterns Of Mexican Workers In The Southern Region: A Focus On Nonmetro/Metro Distinctions, Rogelio Saenz
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
The last few years have witnessed a tremendous change in the geographic location patterns of the Mexican population in the United States. The rural South represents one of the areas that have seen a noticeable growth in the Mexican population over the last few years. Unfortunately, data necessary to examine the social and economic adjustment of Mexicans in this area are not available at this time. This analysis uses data from the 1990 Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) to examine the earnings patterns bf Mexican-origin workers in the South. The sample used to conduct the analysis includes 9,509 Mexican-origin workers …
College Graduates In The Nonmetropolitan South: Origins And Prospects, Robert M. Gibbs
College Graduates In The Nonmetropolitan South: Origins And Prospects, Robert M. Gibbs
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
This study documents the regional origins of the college-experienced population in the nonmetro South, using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, 1979 Cohort. As of 1994, the nonmetro South had generated over half of its own college-experienced adults between the ages of 30-38, a higher rate than that of any other region. Although the results of logistic regression estimates show that nonmetro southerners were less likely to attend college, those who left the region for college were more likely to return than other regional migrants, especially after age 30. In addition, the relatively low demand for college-trained labor in the …
Labor Supply And Underemployment In The Southern United States, Leif Jensen, Jill L. Findeis, Qiuyan Wang
Labor Supply And Underemployment In The Southern United States, Leif Jensen, Jill L. Findeis, Qiuyan Wang
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
We analyze data from selected March Current Population Surveys (U. S. Bureau of the Census) spanning the period 1968 to 1998 to provide a statistical portrait of labor force participation and composition, and underemployment in the nonmetropolitan (nonmetro) and metropolitan (metro) South. The southern labor force has been characterized by many of the same trends seen at the national level. Labor force participation rates have been on the rise in the South, due exclusively to the influx of women into the labor market. For this reason, and due to immigration, the southern labor force has come to consist more of …
The Labor Force Experiences Of Non-College Bound Youth In The South: A Ten-Year Perspective, Lionel J. Beaulieu, Melissa Barfield
The Labor Force Experiences Of Non-College Bound Youth In The South: A Ten-Year Perspective, Lionel J. Beaulieu, Melissa Barfield
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Debates continue to abound regarding the importance of having an educated, well-trained workforce that can effectively fill the technology-sophisticated jobs emerging in the South. No doubt, the ticket to a decent job continues to be tied to a college education. But, the reality is that not all adults are able to secure a post-secondary education. The question is what prospects exist for those individuals who become non-college bound? This study devotes attention to the plight of young adults in the South who graduated from high school in 1982 and who pursued no post-secondary education of any type over the subsequent …
Migration In The Nonmetropolitan South, Mark Nord, John Cromartie
Migration In The Nonmetropolitan South, Mark Nord, John Cromartie
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Data from multiple sources are analyzed to provide a picture of domestic migration patterns, characteristics of migrants, and effects of migration on poverty and human capital in the rural South during the 1990s. Migration trends in the 1990s were quite favorable for the rural South. Net migration was positive and substantial and represented a gain of people in their early career years including a disproportionate share of young families. The "brain drain" that characterized the 1980s has at least slowed, and possibly stopped. The comparative advantage of rural areas is increasingly found in their natural amenities and low population densities …
Job Search, Employment Density, And The Rate Of Exit Of Unemployment In Nonmetropolitan Labor Markets, Bradford F. Mills
Job Search, Employment Density, And The Rate Of Exit Of Unemployment In Nonmetropolitan Labor Markets, Bradford F. Mills
Journal of Rural Social Sciences
Little is known about the influences that employment density and other local labor-market conditions have on transitions from unemployment to employment in nonmetropolitan areas. The empirical job search model developed in this paper finds that individual characteristics, unemployment rates, commuting patterns, and trade and service sector growth all significantly influence the rate of exit of unemployment following job loss. Measures of local labor-market density, by contrast, appear to have little direct impact on the rate of exit of unemployment. The results of the paper suggest that the differential targeting of remote areas with job search assistance for displaced workers is …

Research Funding Soars To Record $44.1 Million, Mitchell Diggs
University of Mississippi News
UNIVERSITY, Miss. -- Football season ticket sales have hit an all-time high and "Deuce for Heisman" bumper stickers are everywhere. But Coach David Cutcliffe's Rebels are not the only group setting records and generating such enthusiasm on the Oxford campus. The University of Mississippi's Office of Research recently celebrated the end of the fiscal year with a new record. For the fiscal year (which ended June 30), external funding for research, education and service projects grew by more than 29 percent, soaring to more than $44.1 million. That figure easily topped last year's record-setting $34.1 million and more than doubled …
