Career fairs open doors for graduating seniors

Campus career fairs sponsored by the School of Business and the School of Engineering have something different to offer students this year. The fairs will sport an easy-going dress code and a new location.
The fairs, sponsored by the School of Business and the School of Engineering, have been moved from Allen Field House, where they have been for the last 12 years, to the Holiday Inn Holdome Convention Center.
Julie Cunningham, career services director for the Engineering Career Services Office, said the convention center had many advantages the field house did not.
"It is more accessible to those who have a hard time with stairs, and it is air conditioned," she said.
Free bus service from campus to the convention center, 200 McDonald Drive, will provide students with transportation to and from the fair.
The School of Business career fair will be from 2 to 8 p.m. on Sept. 24. The School of Engineering will have its fair from 1:30 to 8 p.m. on Sept. 25.
Cunningham said that the purpose of the career fair was to provide a forum for information exchange without the formality of an interview and that dressing up is not required.
"In the informal setting, students can go to
research companies and gather information, while employers can get to know the students better." she said.
Fred Madaus, director of the School of Business Placement Center, said the career fair had a "informational, walk-through atmosphere" for students to meet employers.
"Some companies will have a basic table with a representative to answer questions and literature about the company," Madaus said. "Other companies will have everything from fancy videos to giveaways."
About 160 companies will be represented in this year's career fair. About 100 companies will have representatives at the School of Business career fair, Madaus said.
The School of Engineering will have about 60 representatives at the fair, and Karen Kelm of the Engineering Career Services Office. Representatives from seven graduate schools and two general information groups, the Kansas Engineering Society and the Society of Fire Protection Engineers.
Cunningham said students who attend the fair should be assertive and initiate contact, shake hands with the employer and ask questions about the company.
Madaua recommended that all students use the career fair, whether they are graduating or looking for an internship.
"There will be no time in a student's life when it is easier for them to make contacts with that number of companies," he said.
THE BEST WAY TO PREDICT THE FUTURE IS TO CREATE IT...(PETER DRUCKER)
As part of the future, we bring with us experiences and new ideas to improve technology and enhance our own existence. Without the future, the past seems useless. Without the past, the future is helpless.
Career Fair 1991 sparks the beginning for many of our futures. It will open doors that otherwise would be closed. It will open minds to concepts never ventured into before. Best of all, it leads us to the future and the hope that we have for it. Knowing this, it becomes ours for the taking, ours to create!
