Gelman Library Student Liaison

The Gelman Library Student Advisory Board is a way for you to give feedback directly to library staff and administrators. It is also a way for you to find out about upcoming events in the library, or new policies. At the next meeting, a representative from our Development Office will be present to talk about our goals for fund-raising for and improving Gelman Library. Lastly, we will discuss the Student Liaison position for those interested in the part-time, paid position. If you want your opinion to be heard, or want to help Gelman Library, this is a great opporutnity.

Gelman Library Room 208
FREE REFRESHMENTS will be provided!

Resume Madness is a non-recruiting annual tradition which brings employers to campus to meet individually with students to discuss their resumes and provide helpful critiques in a short amount of time (10 minutes per student). This is not a recruitment format; the students in attendance will engage in one-on-one advice to seek information from an employer’s perspective.

This year’s program is scheduled for Wednesday, February 13, 2008 from 5:00 – 8:00pm in the Marvin Center 3rd floor Continental Ballroom.

Free food and parking will be provided.
