Don’t Cancel Class! (Or how about "create a class")

This unique service offers faculty members an option instead of canceling their classes when circumstances dictate. In the event that a faculty member plans to be off campus or experiences a last minute, unforeseen circumstance, a career services staff member is always ready to be a “substitute” for that class period. Or, perhaps a faculty member simply wants a guest presenter for their class or a student organization they advise. Why not invite a career services staff member to fill in (even at the last minute)? We can bring one of our excellent tailor-made workshops to your students to assist them in considering career choices or sharpening their job searching skills. Or ask us to create a workshop or presentation of your choosing. We'll be happy to accommodate. Call Career Services at 5242 to set up a presentation this semester for your class!

Here are some class sessions that we are ready to lead for your class or student organization:
