Can you imagine that Fall Quarter has started?  Albers Business School has a busy schedule because there are some many great events coming up for the students.  Undergraduates and graduates, please make time to attend all of them because you will find them so useful for your academic study and professional career.

1: Dodd-Frank Financial Reform - Risks and Opportunities for Legal, Financial and Business Professionals

This is an excellent opportunity to gain insights about our current and future economic situation and financial position.  This panel of distinguished professors in law, finance and economics will discuss these opportunities and risks with an eye toward helping professionals more consistently succeed in the new institutional setting that Dodd-Frank is creating.

2: Albers Business Career Fair

The annual Albers Business Career Fair is around the corner.  No matter you have a job or not, attending the fair can give you a better idea of how the job market is doing.  It is a great platform for you to sell your skills to the recruiters. The fair will include leading employers from the Greater Puget Sound business area.

Albers Placement Center

Wednesday, October 20, 2010  (11:30 AM - 1:30 PM)

3: Albers Executive Speaker Series

You will get a chance to meet with so many leaders domestically and internationally when you study at Albers.  I want to say the best way to improve is to learn from the leaders and understand why they fail and why they succeed.
