Student Life – Club Fair

A good event, although none of the clubs were really ace. I go to a lot of the club events advertised by flier anyway, because some of them have good events and free food.

Career Exploration

Basic interviewing skills. While some of the skills taught were valuable, it would have been better just to give us a paper of the power-point rather than waste our time. It did open up the career center to us, which … Continue reading
