ENEWS for Undergrads

News for and about the NC State College of Management Undergraduate student community. Submit ENEWS items to College Communications by 5 p.m. Monday of each week.

One more [important] thing to read

This newsletter is indeed 'one more thing to read' ... but it's your link to important information, including reminders about course-related deadlines; company information sessions and other career launching opportunities; speakers, student organization and other events, and college-wide news. So take a few minutes to skim through the message when it arrives each week. You don't want to be the one who didn't know about a career fair, student event, or a deadline.

Be sure you check the mail sent to your university email account, and make sure you clear out your inbox so that messages get through.
