McKinsey & Co. Info Session for LAH Seniors Graduating in Dec or May Thurs. Sept 1

Invitation to McKinsey & Company Info Session on Thursday, September 1: McKinsey & Company, an international management consulting firm, will be holding an information session for all interested students at 7:00 pm on September 1 in Classroom 103 of the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center.  Consultants from McKinsey will be on hand to talk about full-time business analyst positions and to introduce you to who we are and what we do to get the fall recruiting season started. This info session is geared towards students graduating in December 2011 or May 2012 and seeking full-time employment, but all are welcome. We will be back on campus in late October for another info session about our summer internship program. Please contact Jennifer Dunseith at jennifer_dunseith@mckinsey.com with any questions. We look forward to seeing you!

McKinsey works with leading corporations, non-profit institutions, and governments on issues of critical importance to senior management.  We help our clients solve strategic, organizational, and operational problems in order to make significant and enduring improvements in their performance.  What is unique about McKinsey is that we consider the people who make up the firm to be as important as the clients with whom we work.  We seek to work with truly dynamic individuals — the most talented scholars and the most compelling leaders — to create an environment that is a great place both to learn and to have fun.

Acts of Sharing – Trade Books, Sports Equipment and More

Many of you have asked how to get textbooks less expensively and we finally have an answer for you!  Check out Acts of Sharing as a way for you to clean up your room and get rid of textbooks or find new ones.  LAH alum Brian Boitmann started up this organization and it seems like a wonderful way to trade textbooks and other items.  Here is some more info:

ActsofSharing.com is the hub for LAH students, and for that matter, UT students and organizations, to share and borrow items together.  We realized that rather than selling back our textbooks only to buy them again this next semester, it made more sense to just connect with our fellow classmates and share the books we needed for our new classes instead.  Not only can you share textbooks, but sporting goods, outdoor equipment, movies, games–just about anything you like, a free craigslist for friends and students at UT!  And by sharing and borrowing what we need from other Longhorns we know, we can save money and live in tighter community with each other on campus.

Horns Helping Horns, this is the culture we want to have on campus, and we believe that what starts here, changes things in a BIG way.
