Be the Artist of Your Life
Create your
career with
Career Day
’92.
by Crystal Grzella
staff writer
Mars Hill College’s an
nual Career Day is scheduled
for October 29, 1992 in the
Blue Lounge of Wren Col
lege Union. The day long
event provides an informa
tional setting to gather infor
mation and practice
communication skills. Also,
it allows students the oppor
tunity to conduct themselves
informally with a profes
sional manner.
Where will you go after
college? Some Mars Hill
graduates will attend gradu
ate school, while others will
be out in the job market. The
Job Market has become a
scary term since the media
has reiterated the fact that
jobs are tight and employers
are not hiring.
This is not true in every
sense of the market. Career
Day at Mars Hill College
could help in finding a job
which is suitable.
If you do not know what
type of career you would like
to pursue. Career Day will
provide a means for you to
review different companies
and get a feel for what is of
fered in the job market.
Nancy Harmon, orga
nizer of the event as well as
director of counselling and
career programs, is ex
tremely excited about this
year’s turn out of between
thirty and thirty-five compa
nies to attend Career Day.
"Seniors should utilize ca
reer day by networking," said
Harmon. "Be prepared!
Come to Career Day with an
updated and current resume.
Please take the time to re
search the companies that in
terest you in order to have
some extra knowledge about
the organization."
At Career Day, actual job
interviews can be set up;
therefore, it is important to
have a plan of action. Ju
niors may find a nice intern
ship for the spring or a
part-time position to pick up
some extra cash. If a student
is considering an internship
in the spring, definitely come
out and see what the employ
ers expect from their appli
cants. In addition,
sophomores and freshmen
can talk with the different re
cruiters in search of a part-
time position or just to get a
feel for the kind of experi
ence to expect in the future.
Faculty members should
also attend Career day to re
view internship opportuni
ties for undergraduates.
If any of the Sororities
and Fraternities are inter
ested in community service
projects, non-profit organi
zations involved in Career
’92 could be an excellent
source of opportunities.
Information packets, bro
chures, pamphlets, and vid
eos will be available at
Career ’92 along with gradu
ate school information and
testing information.
The career development
office is also offering services
on "How to get a Job."
These services include re
sume and cover letter, refer
ence gathering, resume
development and produc
tion, (femographic explora
tion, as well as location.
Seniors who need assistance
in getting their resumes to
gether should utilize the Ca
reer Development office,
located on the third floor of
Wren College Union.
Nancy Harmon will also
be glad to assist anyone in
preparation for Career ’92.
If your would like to have any
information on graduate
schools or testing, the Career
Library is open every week
day until five o’clock.
If graduating seniors do
not find an interesting career
outlet at Career ’92, then a
recruitment cohference enti
tled Careers ’93 is designed
specifically to help you find,
interview for and get the job
your want, with the employer
you want.
For seven consecutive
years, this results-oriented
program has offered gradu-
atmg students an unparal
leled career opportunity that
delivers results!
However, you have to be
invited to attend one of these
conferences. For informa
tion on how to apply to at
tend a conference, pick up a
brochure entitled "Careers
’93 WILL PUT YOU FACE
TO FACE WITH YOUR
FUTURE" in the Career De
velopment Office.
If you have any questions
in regard to Career Day ’92
or Careers ’93 please call
Nancy Harmon at 689-1253.

Recalling the Origins of Rock and
Roll in "Buddy," the Musical
.4
f ■ -#
From Staff Reports
The age of rock and roll got off to a
roaring start with the infectious tunes of
Buddy Holly, and the prolific young
Texan’s influence is paid a red-hot trib
ute in the smash musical "Buddy: The
Buddy Holly Story," 8:00 p.m. Thursday,
October 29 at Moore Auditorium.
"It’s not the melodies or the lyrics that
capture us," wrote Daily News critic
Doug Watt of the original Broadway per
formance, "but the sheer rhythm drive of
the ensemble and the star."
"It recalls the days," cheered New
York Post writer Clive Barnes, "when
rock actually took place as much in the
ater auditoriums as in the vast and gusty
arenas that have transformed rock’s
soul."
The musical rolls the audience
through the early days when Buddy sang
country music in his hometown of Lub
bock, Texas, and into New York City,
where the singer and his band "The
Crickets" rocked the famed Apollo The
ater as the first white act to play there.
Along the way. Buddy courts and
marries the lovely Maria Elena, breaks
from his manager, tours with his band
and evokes, with the production’s clever
nostalgic gloss, the awakening ’50s sappy
style.
But the big blast is saved for last, when
the musical recreates the wild, ripping
ener^ of that final show Holly dia with
Richie Valens and the Big Bopper in the
Surf Ballroom at Clear Lake, Iowa,
where "the whole cast becomes one big
jumping, rocking ensemble of band play
ers and backup singers."
Reserved tickets for MHC students
are $5.00 and can be obtained in Owen
Theatre Box Office Monday through Fri
day from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m.. This is a Green
Card Event.
