Visiting a Career Center Could Transform Your Life

Career Centers can change lives — just ask Robert Scott, Customer Care Center assistant vice president for State Farm. At the recent State Farm Career Center dedication Scott revealed that, just before he graduated from Middle Tennessee State University, he entered a career center and saw a list of companies that were holding interviews.

“I interviewed with State Farm, and here I am 30 years later dedicating a career center on behalf of that organization, State Farm,” Scott said. “It is humbling. What would have happened if I would have just passed by? I encourage students to step in and take advantage of the State Farm Career Center.”                                                                                         Read more

Feline Films 
I know the summer movie blockbuster season is upon us. I know you have tons of options and, if you aren't taking summer classes, you've got plenty of time to go see things blow up or watch space wizards battle some robots. But if you are sitting around on a Thursday night and you don't want to go out, maybe one of our movie reviews this month could point you to a pleasant way to spend a few hours before bed.
