Grad schools to visit KSU

Published on September 25, 2007 by The Sentinel

    The Office of Graduate Admissions is holding their first ever
Graduate School Fair on Oct. 3. This fair gives students the chance to
speak with representatives and have questions answered.

    In the past, these fairs have been sponsored by
Career Services. Unfortunately, they could never get many schools to
attend. This year, however, the Office of Graduate Admissions has
gathered nearly 30 schools from around the Southeast including KSU’s
own graduate schools.

    The list of schools include many different programs,
such as law, education and professional writing, as well several
colleges that sponsor multiple degrees.

    “We are hoping for a great turnout from our
students, as this is an excellent chance for them to network with
graduate schools from around the Southeast,” said David Baugher, the
director of the Office of Graduate Admissions at KSU.

    “A graduate degree is a necessity in this economy.
The Graduate School Fair is a great chance to explore options for
obtaining a graduate degree,” said Teresa Joyce, Dean of the Graduate
College at KSU.

    Unlike several other sponsored events on campus,
this fair does not have a specific dress code students need to follow.
The Office of Graduate Admissions will also be offering different door
prizes, ranging from KSU paraphernalia such as hoodies, caps and shirts
to a drawing for an iPod. Prizes will be awarded hourly for those
attending. The fair is going to be held from 11 a.m to 3 p.m. in the
Carmichael Student Center.
