You’ll get a FREE GIFT for coming by so early! If that doesn’t work for you, check out your advisor’s calendar to schedule an appointment before spring break- you’ll still beat the rush.

It’s also time again for the CM U-ACCESS Donation Drive! Donate at least 5 of the listed items and earn 1 MAP Mile. Students can earn up to two MAP miles in this category for donating two different semesters. Donations will be accepted in M-5-610 between 2/27/17 and 3/3/17.

A mock interview is an opportunity for you to practice your interviewing skills with a professional business person who will provide you with feedback on how you can improve your performance in real interviews. Come prepared as if this was a real interview and Ms. Thistle will be able to offer feedback to help you prepare to be your best! You are required to bring a resume and a job description to which you are applying.

Ms. Thistle will be available all day on 3/2/2017 to see students.
