Jacki Adkins, assistant director of Student Resource Commons, feels that the Resource Fair benefits participants鈥攂oth students and those sharing information. 卢

鈥淥ur students really seem to appreciate the opportunity to speak with representatives from the various programs face-to-face,鈥� Adkins said. 鈥淎lso, individuals from the organizations learn from our students and network. This is our tenth year, and participation continues to grow.鈥�

Student Stacy Griffing attended the fair because students who participated were entered into a drawing for a scholarship, but she was surprised by how much she took away from it. 

鈥淭his was a great opportunity for networking, and I found the Resource Fair very useful,鈥� Griffing said. 鈥淚 was able to meet a lot of new people and even came across a lead for a potential job after graduation.鈥�
