CareTech Solutions looking for interns

Jobs are in Michigan, Ohio, and Maine. Their corporate headquarters are located in Troy, Michigan.

Internships, however, are not just for the summer or a semester. CareTech tends to hire interns and promote from within, so an internship could be great for a recent graduate to move into a full time position.
All the listings for jobs are located on the CareTech Solutions website under career: all postings:  https://caretech.silkroad.com/epostings/index.cfm?fuseaction=app.allpositions&company_id=15900&version=1

Student Organization Information

 Student Organization Presidents and Advisors,

(Organizations in the midst of their officer transitions – please forward this email to your new officers)

Please see the attached memos regarding the 2012/2013 GPA requirements for officers, and student organization transition information that was distributed to all organization mailboxes earlier this week.  Questions about these memos can be directed to mawilcox@mtu.edu, or 906-487-2402.

Secondly, here is a heads-up for two major student organization recruitment events that happen each Fall – K-Day and F’All Nighter – and a new community-wide event sponsored by the Memorial Union Board.

F’all Nighter is an orientation week event sponsored by Alpha Phi Omega, a service organization at Michigan Tech, and is designed to introduce first-year students to organizations on campus.  F’All Nighter will be held on Saturday, September 1, 2012 (time TBD) at the SDC and again, organizations set up engaging activities to showcase their organization.  The contact for F’All Nighter is Lydia Brame at lmbrame@mtu.edu.

Keweenaw Day, or K-Day, a longstanding tradition at Michigan Tech sponsored by the InterFraternity Council, will be held on Friday, September 7, 2012 from noon to 4:00 pm at McLain State Park.  Organizations can set up booths to showcase their organization.  Every year at K-Day, there is food, music, and other fun activities.  2012 plans include live band karaoke, water slides and a climbing wall.  Questions about K-Day can be directed to Student Activities at activities@mtu.edu, or call 906-487-1963.

Registration is currently open for both events:
For F’All Nighter, go to https://www.involvement.mtu.edu/form/start/9510.
For K-Day, go to https://www.involvement.mtu.edu/form/start/9495.

New for 2012, the Memorial Union Board is hosting a community-wide event on Saturday, September 8, 2012 (the day after K-Day) and is asking you to “save the date.”  They are inviting student organizations to set up their booths from 3:00 – 8:00 pm at the Chutes and Ladders Park in Houghton.  Bring yard games, activities, and more to engage community members and showcase what the University has to offer.  Since this event is community-wide, the MUB Board is expecting upwards of 8,000 people to attend!  Information about this event can be directed to David Shull at dshull@mtu.edu.

If you have any questions, or need any assistance regarding your organization transitioning into the new academic year, feel free to contact Mary Wilcox at 906-487-2402 or mawilcox@mtu.edu
