ON CAMPUS: Wall Street woes may change students’ job plans

Business students with ambitions to get a job on Wall Street after graduation may need to revise the dream, at least temporarily.

Big investment firms, like Goldman Sachs or J.P. Morgan, are skipping their usual fall recruitment visits to UW-Madison’s campus amid the financial crisis on Wall Street, said Steve Schroeder, director of the Wisconsin School of Business career center.

“Our message to students is you may have to change plans,” Schroeder said.
