If you are undecided about your major or nor sure what career to pursue, come to our Cookie Break on Tuesday, March 20, at 3:00 PM in the Library's Information Commons. Ashley Lierman, our Information Technology/Technical Services Librarian, will be on hand to walk you through the Careers and Majors guide, which will identify resources on campus, on the web, and in the Library to help you with your career and major decisions. We will be serving cookies and lemonade, and all participants will have a chance to win a $25 Amazon.com gift card.
