Upcoming Events for September 2011

Exam Prep Workshop 9/17 at 1PM in B135

Professor Peter Wendel from Pepperdine, who has taught at SCU and facilitated this workshop before, will be here to help us improve exam skills. Professor Wendel travels from LA to the Bay Area and beyond to give this presentation. His workshop has been recommended by Upper Division students and this may be an excellent opportunity to preview him for next semester, when he will be teaching Wills & Trusts and Community Property at SCU.
Food will be served.

Time Management Workshop Tentatively Saturday, 9/10/11 (cool date!) in Bannan
