Here’s our “What to Know, Before You Go” reminders for Winter Break! Pro tip: Let your landlord know you are leaving so they can check on the property or make any repairs while you are away. We hope everyone has a safe, happy, and healthy break.
As a part of the Connecting Commuter with Careers initiative, we have teamed up with the Center for Career Development to host a virtual Resume and CV Critique for our commuters and off-campus students. Make sure your resume/CV is in tip-top shape and ready to go the distance with potential employers! This event is on a first come, first serve basis and will also be the last Resume/CV critique for the semester.

Exciting news: in collaboration with UConn SHaW, off-campus students will be able to attend a safe and socially distanced Condom Blitz event to pick up free safer sex supplies from the UConn Sexperts and gloveBOX team. All off-campus students are invited to stop at any one of the three pick up locations this week. Please note- all students picking up supplies must be wearing a face mask, or will be asked to leave.
