They offer 2X3, 3X4, 3X6 banner and 3X8 banner. There is a price list at the Information Desk in the SUB; they like to have two weeks notice to get poster orders done. Also talked about room scheduling, advised that she schedules the rooms for the WCC, the SUB, the amphitheatre and the grounds. The WCC for events is free to clubs and orgs and student events. Anything scheduled in the WCC and SUB that needs catering has to be done through Sodexho unless you talk to Dale Askew and ok it through him. Discussed posting regulations in the SUB. Advised that all of the advertising and posters that are in the SUB have to be date stamped. In the SUB posting on the walls and windows is prohibited.

III. Debra Lybyer: Director Career and Advising Services. Passed out handouts. Talked about the “Dressing for a Successful Interview” which is scheduled for Wednesday of next week (March 8). There will be a drawing for a $50 gift certificate during the event and there will also be two models for clothing. On April 12 there will be another event “Gaining the Competitive Edge in an Interview Meal.” Will cost $6 for students and will be a fun event to attend.

Matt Smith asked “if I want to get a job how can your office help me?” Debra responded that they have work study positions and they also have a program called “Job Match.” That program is for local employers when they have an opening and want a student employee. The other way that they help students is when they are closer to graduation they can visit the Placement Bulletin on the Career and Advising website to find what kind of jobs are available in your field and what kind of pay can be expected. There are also workshops for interviews and writing resumes available in the office. There is a resume clinic in April, check the website.
