We have a very informative day planned for MBA Campus Visit Day on Monday. Registration is 8:30-9:00, 9:00-presentation, 10:00-campus tour, 11:00-lunch and learn with Dr. Jeff Murray and current Walton MBA students, 12:30-alumni panel. The day should end by 2:00. See more specific details below. There will be another opportunity next semester.
Halloween is Sunday and if you have followed this blog, you know I have two children. All kids LOVE Halloween and mine are no different. Events started the 16th with a fall festival at their school. Then on Tuesday, they did trunk or treat at their school. This is where parents pull into the parking lot, open up their trunks, and the trick or treaters go car to car. It is safe and well supervised. They also had two blow up toys in the gym - a bouncy house and a slide. Tonight, Fayetteville does trick or treating on the Square. The merchants on Fayetteville's downtown Square stand outside their doors and the ghosts, goblins, fairy tale princesses, ninja warriors, power rangers, and Hannah Montanas walk around the Square trick or treating. Also a very safe time for the kids. This is held 3:00-5:00 so I will be picking my two up from school and heading straight there. It is always a very well attended event.
Tomorrow is Homecoming for the Razorbacks and we will be playing Vanderbilt. This weekend is packed with events and activities connected with both Homecoming and Halloween. It is also a beautiful time to visit Northwest Arkansas. The leaves are changing colors and there is a bit of a nip in the air. It cooled off today. We had been experiencing higher than normal temperatures.
Next week will be a busy time for the GSB. Monday is our Visit Day, and Wednesday I will be attending a Career Fair at the University of Central Arkansas. After this fair, I am going to UAMS in Little Rock to talk about the Walton part-time MBA and after that I am meeting a student in the area who is also interested in the MMBA. Wednesday will be a long day for me. On Thursday I will be at a Career Fair at the University of Arkansas-Fort Smith. Also on Thursday and Friday, the 4th and 5th, the McNair scholars are visiting the University of Arkansas. The GSB will be hosting visiting students who are interested in master's degrees in Business.
After next week the recruiting travel schedule slows down. For the rest of the year we'll be wrapping up the MBA class that will begin in January and getting ready for that Orientation. Thanksgiving is around the corner and before you know it, we'll be on winter break. Time sure does fly when you are having fun.
