Mark your calendars for next week’s CPPO workshops

1- Wednesday, March 6, 2013 from 5:15 – 6:30 p.m. in the Law School Atrium —  Speed Networking.

Ever been to an event where there’s one speaker, and you’d like to network and ask them questions after the event, but you can’t because someone else beats you to the punch, and you have to leave for class? Well at this speed networking event, you will have the opportunity to meet every attorney that is there! (and there will be many). The number of attorneys that come depend on how many students sign up! Like speed-dating, everyone will have a few minutes to talk with every lawyer that is there, and then we’ll open it up for an informal meet & greet. Punch and snacks provided. RSVP today by e-mailing Kristina Floyd in the Career Planning Office (kmf12@uakron.edu).

2- Thursday, March 7 from 12:20 – 1:10 p.m. in Room 134 – Everything you need to know about the Legal Clinics and Externships/Internships – come hear Professors Carro, Sahl and Spring  and CPPO Director Barbara Weinzierl and Assistant Director Alisa Benedict O’Brien speak about the various Akron Law Legal Clinics and internship/externship opportunities available for this summer and beyond.
