Pharmacy degree may cure job-market woes (AP)

Ten years after graduating from the University of Oklahoma with a bachelor’s degree in business, Mark Fain’s dream of earning enough money to allow his wife to stay home with their two children had been replaced with the reality of a $30,000-a-year job as a customer sales representative at Ford Motor Credit Co.

Now Fain is back in school, working on a pharmacy degree that will likely allow him to triple his salary and have his pick of employers.
