* Looking for a way to build a network with staff members in other departments? Bring your lunch to 234 RSC at noon tomorrow (Thursday, Aug. 17) and meet WSU's Young Shocker Professionals. We're a group for the young or young at heart. Our purpose is to unite faculty and staff from across campus, make connections and have fun. We regularly do brown bag lunches, athletic events, happy hours and more. There is no fee to join and no commitment. Just email ysp@wichita.edu to be added to the mailing list and start receiving news about all of the great things we are doing together.
* Promote your events by having them posted on the university calendar. It's as easy as going to http://www.wichita.edu/thisis/calendar/events.asp and clicking on "submit event."
