Economics Career Forum

The Department of Economics is excited to announce its first annual Economics Career Forum coming up on November 1, 2013, 1-4 pm, followed by a networking reception. The Forum will feature panel sessions with Economics Alumni from a variety of career fields; we hope this will be a great opportunity for students interested in economics to learn about career options and network with successful alumni! All Liberal Arts students are welcome to RSVP and attend, regardless of major.  The link to RSVP is: http://bit.ly/19nDesB

Nominate Your Advisor for the Vick Academic Advising Award

Nominations are now being accepted for the 2013-2014 Texas Exes James W. Vick Awards for Academic Advising. These $500 awards are provided annually for five undergraduate academic advisors from across the campus to promote quality advising at The University of Texas by publicly recognizing advisors who have had an effective, positive influence on the educational experience of university students. Recipients are selected by students and coordinated through the Texas Exes.

PS. While Stacey and I feel a little funny sending out this nomination form, since it’s for advisors like us, I encourage you all to nominate any academic advisor on campus that you feel has helped you out!
