I know, we just had a snow day, and it’s February. But USG campus is currently bustling with advertising for the various, exciting events that are coming up on campus for Spring.  Personally, these are my favorite events of the year and I highly recommend going to them! Make sure to register/sign up as son as you can. Here’s an overview of how they went last year and details for this year:

LinkedIn Lab: The LinkedIn Lab includes workshops to help you vamp up your LinkedIn page and also how to reach out to potential employers. Part of the lab that was really popular last year were the professional headshots being taken for your LinkedIn page.  Most importantly, these headshots are FREE, so make sure not to miss it! The lab will be held in Bldg 3 2225 and 2226. Workshops will be held 12 to 1 pm and 2 to 3 pm and headshots will be taken from 12 to 2 pm.

Etiquette Dinner: The Etiquette dinner is an event that I really enjoyed last year.  It started off with mock tails and a chance for everyone to meet new people on campus.  We moved into the dining area and had a full course meal after that (appetizer, dinner, dessert). As we ate, we were taught how to professionally eat- which spoon to use with what food, how to hold your food, what to do in certain situations, etc.  Another reason why you should sign up for this event- it is FREE FOOD.  Space is limited so make sure to RSVP at bit.ly/USGEtiquetteDinner ASAP.  Also, if you want a more detailed overview of the event last year check out Derek’s Post from last year!

International Night: This is by far the biggest event held on USG campus and sponsored by Student Event Board. The multipurpose room is filled with tables all around with people representing their own countries. The tables featured clothing, art pieces, food, and the list goes on.  Performance wise, there was singing, dancing, and a fashion show. It even ended with an open dance floor at the end of the night.  This year, International Night will be held on  Thursday, March 31st 6-11 pm.  For more details on last year’s event check out my post from last year.
