Announcements November 12th

CAREER SERIES:
Thank you all for coming to last Friday's Workshop on Resume Writing. We had a very large group, which is wonderful. According to your feedback, I believe the session was very useful and informative to the majority of those who came.
This Friday, I will conduct the second workshop session on Interviewing, Professional Dress and Job Searching. Please continue to be on time.

WORKSHOP 2
Interviewing, Professional Dress and Job Searching

When: November 14th, 3:30-4:30
Location: University Center Rm 131

WORKSHOP 3
Immigration Attorney Steve Springer will provide information on H1 B visas, Permanent Residency and other options after OPT. Please come to this session. We as F1 student advisors do not advisor on H1 B issues. This is your opportunity to ask questions and get information from a qualified immigration attorney. You do not want to miss it!

When: November 21st, 1:30-2:30
Where: Shelby Center Rm 109


HARVEST DINNER
Each year the UAHuntsville community provides a traditional American style Thanksgiving meal to international students and other in the UAHuntsville community. This year Harvest Dinner will be held on Monday, November 17th. Please make plans to attend for yummy food, door prizes and socializing. Anyone can attend so bring your friends and family.

When: November 17th, 4:30-7:30
Where: Baptist Student Center (located at the corner of Holmes Avenue and Sparkman Drive)


TRAVEL SIGNATURE DAY
Each semester we have a travel event for students who are traveling outside the country for the holiday break to bring their I-20s for the mandatory travel signature. It will be a fun day with free food and prizes. It is also more time efficient for our office to sign all I-20's on the same day. If you drop off I-20's before the travel signature day, your I-20 will be signed and ready for you to pick up on the 26th or after.
Before you get your I-20 signed, you must be registered in Spring classes. Make sure you register before November 26th.
When: November 26th 10:00am-12:30pm
Where: Morton Hall 200

CLASSES CANCELED:
Classes will be canceled November 26, 27, and 28 for Thanksgiving Holidays. The university will remain open on November 26th but will be closed the 27th and 28th.
