The Downtown and Midt
own campuses are so excited to get back into the swing of things for the fall Semester. We have been planning all summer for your arrival – and we can’t wait until you see what we have planned! Just a look ahead for the year, we are planning a huge program fair at Midtown, a Seasonal Job Fair at Downtown, and ReinventSPC (assistance for students with less-than-desirable backgrounds) events for the fall, and another Etiquette Lunch and even a life-sized Game of Life for the spring. So, yeah. We have a lot of great things happening! And we’re so excited! We do have a few changes from last semester that we wanted to announce.
1) Midtown has a new building! Some of you may have attended the grand opening on August 1st, and if not, I encourage you to visit this incredible new facility and see some of the remarkable SMART technologies being used. We still have the old building too though, which will be used for certificates, Women on the Way, and the Office for Civic Engagement. The former building (1100 22nd St S.) will be referred to as the Keene Center, the newer building (1300 22nd St. S.) will be called the Jamerson Center. Most of our Midtown events will be held at the Jamerson Center, abbreviated “JC”.
2) We have new faces! Some of you may have met Rolando Mederos who was hired at the end of the Spring Semester from the Clearwater campus to serve as a Career and Academic advisor for Midtown and will work from the Jamerson center. We had a change over the summer for the Downtown campus: the addition of Brooke Janik. Kellie Ziemak has moved on to another position, and we are so happy to have Brooke Janik, former Academic Advisor, take on the role as our 4th team member to round out the Downtown and Midtown Career Services Staff. Brooke Janik will work at the Downtown campuses in the 1st Floor Student Services area and also staff the desk at the Career Center on Thursday. Dee Mortellaro, Career Outreach Specialist, and I, Rebecca Sarver, Career Specialist, are still here – so you will see some familiar faces. We’re so excited to see our team grow and think the new staff will bring creative ideas! Stop by and meet our new team members today!
3) Resume Tutoring moves to Downtown Lobby. Resume Tutoring at the downtown campus will be held on its’ traditional day and time (Tuesdays from 10am – 11am) however, it will be in the Downtown Lobby Career Center. Hope to see you there!
If you have any questions about anything Downtown or Midtown, please feel free to contact me at the information below! See you soon!
