Mark Stokes
Congratulations to all of our participants at the January student paper contest. We had four Clemson University students in this year's competition. I was very impressed with all of the presentations. Our winners list:
1. Jennifer Vanderhorst
2. Ed McDonough
3. Mike Lockhart
The presentations were well thought out and gave the judges very little to judge against. At least three of this year's participants have said they are planning to attend the state competition in Columbia. This competition will probably be in late February or early March.
Based on the previous attendance at the meetings in Clemson, we are going to have the meetings for February and March in Clemson as an experiment. I realize this section covers a fairly large geographical area, making it difficult to have a central location for our meetings. I hope this decision doesn't cause anyone to miss a meeting. If there are serious problems making it to Clemson by 7:00pm, please let me know. Also note, the actual meeting doesn't start until after 7:30pm.
Next Meeting
February 18, 1999
Career Services at Clemson
Steven Bobo
Stephanie Pawlowski Director of Alumni Career Services from Clemson University is the speaker for the February meeting. Stephanie will discuss the career information and services available at Clemson University. The topics will include career development and placement, networking, salary calculation information, and World Wide Web career information. These services are available regardless if you graduated from Clemson or another university. This information is beneficial to those of us who have been in the work place for a number of years and to the most recent graduates.
This meeting will be held at the Ramada Inn on Hwy 123 in Clemson on Thursday, February 18, 1999. Dinner will be served:
6:30-7:00 Social 1/2 Hour
7:00-7:30 Dinner
7:30-9:00 Presentation
The cost will be $10.00 for members and guests and $5.00 for students. For reservations please contact one of the officers by Tuesday, February 16, 1999. Reservations are not absolutely necessary, and dinner is optional.
