On Thursday October 29 the major will host the first internship planning event for all Ag Sciences students. This is a new effort to support the internship search process. Although specifically targeting juniors who have just one season remaining to complete the requirement, this casual, fun event will be open to all students in the major. Additionally, we’ll have a sendoff event in late spring 2010 for all students who have secured internships. 

WHAT:       Fall Internship Planning Event
WHERE:     Emerson 135
WHEN:       10/29, 4:45 to 6: 45 p.m.
WHY:          Finding an internship and understanding the requirements (including the Ag Sciences learning contract) can feel overwhelming. This session is meant to provide more information on how to use the resources at Cornell and how to make the learning contract work for you. Returning interns and fellow Ag Sciences students will be available to share their experience and support you in thinking about this process.

**DINNER PROVIDED** Raffle for gift certificate to the Cornell Store!
