Each semester, the Smeal College of Business hosts its own involvement and information fair. For current Smeal students and prospective ones as well, the Big Event is a great way to kick start your extracurricular career.

The majors within Smeal — Accounting, Finance, Management, Marketing, MIS, Risk Management, and Supply Chain & Information Systems — will be discussed during info sessions throughout the building for freshmen and sophomores trying to figure out prospective career paths. All of the Smeal student organizations will have tables set up to give information about their clubs and recruit new members, so if you are looking to finally get involved this semester, you’ll have plenty of options. A breakdown of resources available to business students will be presented as well, for those looking to supplement their studies.

The Big Event is also the informal beginning of rush for business fraternities, as all five of the BFC’s fraternities will be present. If you’re interested in or considering rushing, talking to them at the Big Event ahead of Friday’s BFC Mixer is a good idea.

The Smeal “Big Event” runs tonight from 5 to 7:30 p.m. in the atrium of the Business Building, and features a number of ways for students interested in business to get their fix.
