During Christmas and the holiday season, this includes decorating the campus to reflect the warmth and love that you create in your own home.

Fall semester is quickly coming to a close, which means that the holidays are upon us and your student will have almost one month off. Students can take advantage of this time to conduct informational interviews or engage in a day or two of job shadowing. Doing so is sure to enhance the chances of being employed or […]
