Are you ready for the Career Fair?

View this email in your browser   Dear PCEC Laker, We are proud of you! There are a lot of professional opportunities available to you in the next few weeks. Utilize each opportunity for your future.  As always, we are here to support you! Please e-mail or set up an appointment with a PCEC advisor to discuss your academic questions and concerns. Have a great week! The PCEC Advising Team 13th Annual Undergraduate Research Fair The Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarship (OURS) will be hosting URF on Tuesday, October 4, 5:00-7:00 p.m, Kirkhof Center-Grand River Room, Allendale Campus. At the event, students have the opportunity to get information about participating in research and creative projects directly from faculty and staff. Participating in research and creative projects at GVSU can expand students' academic experience and provide students with another way to look at the world. Research is a process of careful inquiry leading to the discovery of new information. Research is not limited to certain majors, but occurs in all disciplines. The Undergraduate Research Fair is sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarship. Food will also be provided.  To view the participating Departments/programs please click here. Repair Clinic What is it? Volunteers will fix rips, replace buttons, re-attach backpack straps, and more!  This service is absolutely free to any GVSU student.  At each clinic, They try to repair as much as they can for as many as we can.  So far, over 450 services have been performed at Repair Clinics. Knitting instruction on-site with yarn and knitting needles learners may keep. Snacks and small giveaways.  How does it work? We'll look at your item. If we think we can fix it, it will be tagged with your name and e-mail. Items that need to be returned quickly such as your jacket or backpack will be prioritized, and we'll let you know when you can come to pick them up. The next Repair Clinic will be held on October 18, 2022, 6-8 p.m. in the multipurpose room of Holton Hooker Living Center.    Questions? Please e-mail clas@gvsu.edu Fantasy Football Update The top FIVE rankings after week 3 are the following: 1.
