RU is first stop on Graduate School circuit

Career Services will host the Graduate and Professional School Fair on September 23, noon to 3 p.m., in the College of Business and Economics (COBE) Multipurpose Room.

Radford is the kick-off school for the Graduate School circuit. Employer Relations and Events Coordinator Carolyn Sutphin said,  "We are hoping to have a large attendance by students. We have more 60 Graduate Schools registered to attend."

This is an excellent venue, Sutphin says, for getting face-to-face time with admissions personnel and get questions answered in one setting.

The public is invited to attend. To learn more, visit  www.radford.edu/careers or call (540) 831-6528.
