Swing by the Marine Corps table in the upper EMU Amphitheater between 9am and 3pm to get a comprehensive look into what a career in the US Marines would entail. Chat with current officers, test yourself on the pull-up bar and pick-up some great swag. By the time you graduate you could earn more than a degree. You could earn a commission as an officer in the United States Marine Corps.

Join us for an IN PERSON, interactive, panel discussion about using writing and speaking in careers to make a difference in local communities. Panelists will discuss how they use communication – writing and speaking – in their careers and offer advice to students about how to get the most out of writing, public speaking, and critical reasoning experiences at UO. The panel will be followed by an open Q&A and networking. Open to all interested students!
This event is part of fall Career Readiness week: Find Your Future Fest sponsored by Kroger, and presented by the Writing, Public Speaking, and Critical Reasoning (WSCR) minor and the UO Career Center.
Ever feel like a phony? You feel as though at any moment you are going to be found out as a fraud—like you don't belong where you are, and you only got there through dumb luck. This, my friends, is Imposter Syndrome--the persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved as a result of one's own efforts or skills. Lots of us have felt this way! At school. At work. The struggle is REAL! And we want to talk about it! Join your UO community for a discussion on facing imposture syndrome head-on and share advice about how to identify and overcome!
Event sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, as part of the UO Fall Career Readiness Week: Find Your Future Fest sponsored by Kroger
Presented by the University Career Center and Holden Center for Leadership and Community Development.
