Career advice, free food, microfinance panel

The Community Advisors from the CRC are hosting two programs this Friday, Dec. 5.

Are you stressed out by the former (the future) and relieved by the latter (free food)? Come to the CRC to simultaneously start/continue planning your life after Wesleyan and eat free food from Sweet Harmony! There will be time to meet with CRC counselors for fifteen minutes: you can meet one on one or in groups of two or three. You can get your resume and coverletter checked. There will also be counselors answering questions in the main area. Finally, there will be
mini-talks at 12:15, 1:15, and 2:15 concerning major concerns (the state of the economy, for example).

Date: Friday, Dec. 5
Time: 12:00 – 3:00 PM
Place: Career Resource Center

Microfinance panel discussion: The panel is being co-sponsored by the Career Resource Center and the student group IMPACT (Integrity and Mobility for the Poor through Access to Capital today). The panel will host a discussion between 3 experts on the theme, 'Microfinance and the empowerment of women'. We have decided to focus the panel discussion on women as they are the targets of many microfinance programs and thought to be a agents of sustainable development. The panel will be followed by dinner from Tandoor and discussion.

Date: Friday, Dec. 5
Time: 5:00 – 7:00 PM
Place: PAC 001
