Come view the April 8 Solar Eclipse from OSU Marion!
OSU's Marion campus will be open to visitors on April 8th so people can view the solar eclipse. Parking will be free and the campus will open at 7am but once the parking is full they plan to close the road leading in. Please read the attached flyer<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/osu.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c5c8b9e4c4ea0024e7b8c1d6a&id=98ae6f84fb&e=8d1098595f__;!!KGKeukY!3nhkSKKAlF4ZOM1SuyydMqiQv0jGbH4VKNa29BjD36dDodGbABboQ_9tmm_8-WijKPJ3zSZ1l-61-ZS9pw$> for more details.

Reminder from IT About Hybrid Meetings in 1080 and 4138 PRB
If you are scheduling an in-person meeting (no Zoom hybrid) in these rooms, then the only requirement is that one of the Physics admins put the meeting on the Outlook 365 room calendar. The AV should all just work, including the lav mics, (assuming they have been properly charged), projector, and Windows podium computer. This is all standard Crestron just like you would see in a classroom.

If you are scheduling a hybrid meeting using Zoom and/or require recording of the meeting, then in addition to scheduling the room on the calendar(s), you must send a service request to asctech at osu.edu<mailto:asctech at osu.edu> alerting us that you require Zoom and giving as many details as you can about the meeting. At minimum we require the meeting day, time, and duration. We also require a co-host invite to the Zoom meeting, but we can arrange this and other details after the request is submitted.

Book Signing & Meet and Greet with Dr. Paul Sutter
April 3rd, 2024, 7:00 pm. Click here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/osu.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c5c8b9e4c4ea0024e7b8c1d6a&id=c2b816b301&e=8d1098595f__;!!KGKeukY!3nhkSKKAlF4ZOM1SuyydMqiQv0jGbH4VKNa29BjD36dDodGbABboQ_9tmm_8-WijKPJ3zSZ1l-6iR6Znfg$> for more information and to RSVP.

Improving Communication Skills: Making Good Presentations GREAT!<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/osu.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c5c8b9e4c4ea0024e7b8c1d6a&id=e7b8351520&e=8d1098595f__;!!KGKeukY!3nhkSKKAlF4ZOM1SuyydMqiQv0jGbH4VKNa29BjD36dDodGbABboQ_9tmm_8-WijKPJ3zSZ1l-6B4uuLew$> By Dr. Todd Thompson (In-Person ONLY event)
Beyond good graphs, big fonts, and a loud voice, what makes a merely good talk truly excellent? In this talk, Todd Thompson discusses some key elements of great seminars, lectures, and colloquia taken from his experience in astrophysics research and teaching. He presents strategies for improving technical seminars, job talks, and public outreach talks, including the art of responding to questions and the trick of knowing what not to say. This event always attracts over 100 MS/PhD/Postdocs/Faculty each year, so register early to join us in-person.
Date: Wednesday, March 20th
Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: Fontana Labs, Room 1000

Your Career and Professional Development
Your ASC advanced degree will help you develop skills valued by a wide array of employers, such as academic institutions as well as government, industry, and non-profit organizations. The ASC Center for Career and Professional Success<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/osu.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c5c8b9e4c4ea0024e7b8c1d6a&id=fe416c9884&e=8d1098595f__;!!KGKeukY!3nhkSKKAlF4ZOM1SuyydMqiQv0jGbH4VKNa29BjD36dDodGbABboQ_9tmm_8-WijKPJ3zSZ1l-5kzNQMeQ$> aims to provide resources and opportunities designed to empower you to explore career paths beyond the tenure track, develop durable skills and robust networks, and prepare you for an exciting and rewarding professional journey.

Getting Started
Each of you is in a unique position when it comes to your career and professional development.  The combination of your individual academic, personal and professional experiences and goals means that your starting point and your journey will be unique.  The stages of Explore, Develop, and Prepare & Pursue are not intended to be prescriptive, rather they offer general guideposts based on career development best practices.  We encourage you to evaluate your own situation and determine how best to utilize the following tools available on this site.  For those who are uncertain, we recommend starting with Explore.

  *   Explore - You will identify your values, skills and interests before exploring the many career paths available to you
  *   Develop – As you narrow in on a career path of interest, gain relevant experience, build valuable skills and grow your professional network
  *   Prepare + Pursue – You will learn how to craft strong professional materials tailored to each position, interview effectively and negotiate job offers
