From: Out in STEM Date: March 18 Subject: Greene Center Interviews + E-Board Noms
Queers Read This!
Hi, Gwen! We hope you had a very restful spring break and are ready to serve (the rest of your time in the trenches). Devastated that Miami’s spring break “breakup” ruined my glow-up plans, I called UHS to schedule my BBL there instead. However, I was even more devastated to discover that UHS does not provide those services, so keep me in your prayers! /s Anyway, below are speaker series details, extended E-Board nom noms, and analyst shade.
This Week
Greene Center Advisors this Wednesday at 7 pm in Douglass 401!!!
Continuing our Spring Speaker Series, the Greene Center will be over to share interview prep & elevator pitch tips to help us get ready to get, navigate, and slay your summer internships and jobs. Afterward, we’ll actually be putting your freshly-refined skills to the test by breaking into groups and taking turns doing mock interviews/pitches!
Don’t worry about having to wear your suit & tie (or taking it too seriously for my fellow anxious folks), it’ll be fun and the advisors will be helping throughout. Bring any professional/career questions you’ve got and a queer friend so groups are diverse!
Coming Up

- Website Changes?
Sooo I’m still waiting for the university’s website analyst to reply to my 18 emails since February because I have several questions and ongoing issues with CCC that keep pushing back the overhaul I’ve got in mind. However, expect some of the new pages going live tonight because a lot of the details are important to establish (but pls don’t judge if some parts look rough/underdeveloped, I’m just a MechE girl, the analyst is supposed to bring in web design/CS). I’ll do a proper Addressing Website Changes profile maybe 2 weeks from now since next week’s newsletter is already jam-packed with opportunities, events, etc. Browse through our CCC website to take advantage of our compiled Opportunities (scholarships, conferences, etc.), read more about our iconic E-Board, and find other general oSTEM links.
