Lots to Come: Articles of Upcoming Guest Presenters

A great, new feature that we'll be adding to our online community site is a "Home-grown" series, spotlighting the guest presenters you'll be meeting over the course of these next 9 months.

These guest speakers are UC San Diego staff professionals, and this introduction will be a jumping-off point for you to:
1) get to know each other
2) prepare questions you'll want to ask him/her individually

Be on the lookout for the next "Home-grown" in the next couple of weeks.

Ready for pick up!

The book, Do What You Are: Discover The Perfect Career For You Through The Secrets Of Your Personality Type, has arrived!

A complimentary copy for each UExplore participant is available at UExplore's office headquarters--otherwise known as 106 University Center.

A complimentray copy will also be distributed to UExplore facilitators and panelists during the October 15th MBTI debriefing.

You'll see either Linda or Wes to pick up your copy. You can come by:
Tuesday, 7:30am-11:30am; 1:30pm-2:00pm; 3:00pm-4:00pm
Wednesday: 7:30am-:10:30am; 11:45am-4:00pm
Thursday: 7:30am-4:00pm
Friday: 7:30am-4:00pm

The book is a fun read, and it includes the professional bios of folks who have personalities just like you. I liked how I could read profiles of real people and get information on why those careers work for them (and for me?). The information is detailed, but not overwhelming. The book gives lots of insight on what careers would be satisfying and enriching for all kinds of personality types.
