Changemakers: Paying it Forward | May 2 Jarvez Hall, ’05, will share inspiring stories from his time on campus — including playing on the 2001 Fiesta Bowl football team — and lessons learned in his current role championing the needs of underrepresented youth in East Multnomah County.
Public Health Insider: A Breath of Fresh Air | May 9 College of Public Health and Human Sciences faculty discuss the top environmental risks that affect children (and adults!) where we live, work and play; the health outcomes associated with exposure; and how the new ASP3IRE Center is working to reduce harmful environmental exposures for kids.
Spring Career and Internship Fair | May 19 Does your student still need an internship or job this summer—or beyond? Hundreds of professionals gather at this event, giving students the chance to ask questions about fields and industries they’re interested in, build a professional network and even apply for jobs and internships on the spot. Bonus: Missed the nonprofit and public service fair? These OSU-vetted regional and national organizations also offer internships, work experience and jobs. Getting the opportunity to learn (and earn!) while doing important, impactful work can be life changing.
OSU Day of Service | May 20 OSU Days of Service is a celebration of our global Beaver community making positive changes. Join volunteer projects in Oregon, California or Hawaii — or log hours for an independent service project.
