August 22, 2023 – Upcoming Events, Opportunities & Resources
From the advisor:
Welcome back!!
Hey Hoyas! It’s that time again as we welcome you all (back) to the Hilltop! I know there are friends to see, books to buy, boxes to unpack and all kinds of stuff requiring your attention.
Be sure to check out this newsletter for lots of great Fall 2023 Internship opportunities, events in September with key employers, and other important information. Also, take some time to reflect on your summer. What was your favorite thing you did? What was one new thing you learned (perhaps about yourself)? What was something you wish you could hit the ‘redo’ button on? Ok, perhaps you didn’t get a selfie with all 100 Senators (new window), but I betcha there were a few good memories in there.
Please note that Drop-ins will start on the first day of classes (8/23), with on one appointments beginning on 8/28 (check Handshake for a list of available appointment times). Please take the time to get in some final R&R before the rush of the new semester.
See you soon!
Beth

The times they are a-changin’
In this article, the authors discuss current proposed legislation that would make it easier to obtain a federal job even if you’ve used marijuana (or cannabis-infused products) in the past. Please keep an eye on this, and know that proposed legislation doesn’t mean it’s happened yet. If you ever have a question, come make an appointment with me.
