How do I get to the fair?

For the accounting fair on September 9, you can drive or take the BearLine shuttle to Kentwood Hall.  Kentwood is next door to the Convention Center.

On September 22, special COB Career Fair shuttles will run and students are encouraged to take the shuttles as parking will be limited and there may be a charge.  Two COB Career Fair marked shuttles will pick up students at Bear Park South, Meyer Library and then loop to the Expo Center from 9:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m.  There will be sandwich boards at each location indicating the shuttle stop.

What if I am a College of Business alum?

You are welcome to attend the fair but you must contact Vickie Hicks at vickiehicks@missouristate.edu for specific details and to get permission to attend.

Will there be a photo booth this year?
