> In addition to this announcement, students have already been

> undergraduate, domestic and international—are aware that several  
> opportunities may await them at the job fair on Thursday.  For  
> admittance, students and alumni should be sure to dress in formal  
> business attire and bring several copies of their resume to  
> distribute.  Having personal business cards and a practiced 30- 
> to-60 second “elevator speech” is also encouraged.  The fair may  
> also prove to be a wonderful networking opportunity for  
> administrators, faculty and staff interested in working with the  
> CMC to promote the IIT brand to employers, and to encourage them to  
> participate in IPROs, EnPROs, and research opportunities at IIT and  
> IITRI.

> We hope to see you and your students at the fair on Thursday.
