[sllug-members]: cron job environment

I have the following shell script:

    _pathtest.sh_

#!/bin/sh
echo $PATH > out

When I sign in and run this script manually from a shell, I get the path 
I want. However, when I let this script run as a cron job for the same 
user, I get something totally different.

Do you know how to configure a user's cron job so that it executes with 
the same path that the user would have in a shell after sign-in?
