Students highly benefit from the variety of workshops that we provide

a variety of specific departments in the College of Letters &
Science. We are here to present an
extensive menu of interactive workshops for your students. Want to
supplement your syllabus? Do you anticipate having to cancel a class in
the future? If you have to be out of town or have obligations that
prevent you from teaching your class, then definitely contact us as we
would be happy to present to your students. For more information about
workshops, please contact Sheila Jensen, Career Advisor, at
