Winners announced in expoSItion voting
The public has spoken. And what the public said was that the School of Information expoSItion was a great success. The annual event, held Monday, March 23 in the Michigan League, provided two hours of interaction between student presenters and visitors curious about the projects.
Joanna Kroll, associate director of career services at SI, said, “Feedback from employers and other attendees was extremely positive. A few even made the comment that they were ‘amazed by the creativity and innovation of our students!’ and ‘we need that talent in our organization!’… just to name a few.”
