Engineering event to allow students, employers to meet
By a Kansan reporter
The University of Kansas will have a Minority Engineering Symposium for Kansas and Missouri high-school seniors Monday and Tuesday.
The symposium, which will be in the Holiday Inn Holdome, 200 McDonald Drive, was founded 16 years ago to bring minority students and corporate representatives together, said Kathy Porsch, public relations officer for the school of engineering.
Kansas State University's minority engineering organization joined the KU Society of Women Engineers and SCoMRBE, KU's minority engineering student organization, two years ago in sponsoring the events. The two universities take turns holding the symposium every year, Porsch said.
Florence Boldridge, director of SCoRMEBE, said the events were designed to let students evaluate companies for which they might want to work and to allow corporate representatives to meet prospective employees.

Macintosh $ ^{\mathrm{TM}} $ It's never cost less for your key to success!
It's the first ever KU Bookstores truckload sale on Macintosh computers and that means big savings for you. Like $1000 off the regular retail price on Macintosh Plus.
With prices lower than ever before, now's the time to order a Mac. Here's the deal: On April 1st, the "Mac truck" will arrive loaded with specially priced computers for KU students (staff and faculty, tool!) If you want to make sure your computer is on the truck, you need to pre-order at the bookstore now.
You may even be able to finance your computer with help from the Financial Aid Office. There are several plans available. Some include low monthly payments during the time you're in school at KU; others don't require any payments until after you graduate! Counselors at the Financial Aid Office can tell you if you qualify (financial need is not the qualifying issue.) And they'll explain exactly how the program works. All you have to do is call 864-4700 and make an appointment to find out more.
Step 3: Pick up your Macintosh at the Burge Union on March 31 or April 1 when the trucks arrive. Attend a free seminar to learn how to get started, if you'd like.
You can have a Macintosh on your desk on April 1. All you have to do is order in advance. We'll even show you how to set it up and get started at free seminars in the Burge Union on the 1st. Sound easy? It is. As easy as 1, 2, 3!
Step 2: Order your Macintosh at the Burge Union. Stop by this week and tell us which Macintosh, Plus or SE, to load on the truck for you. (Small deposit required)
Step 1: (optional) Interested in finding out if you qualify for student financing? Contact the Financial Aid Office at 864-4700. Make your appointment as soon as possible. The counselors there will be more than happy to help qualified students choose the best program. (Financial need is not the qualifying issue.)
Macintosh Plus or SE? 2-disk or hard disk drive? You choose. The computer that will help you work faster, smarter and more creatively has never cost less!
