As finals draw nearer and West Virginia University seniors begin to plan for Commencement May 18, future graduates will be able to relieve some stress by taking advantage of the”Senior Lair Fair: A One-Stop-Shop”in the Mountainlair Commons Area from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, March 4-5.

Students can order caps and gowns, graduation announcements, class rings and yearbooks �€all in one location.

“The One-Stop-Shop makes everything convenient for seniors. Its such a busy time of the year, and this is a good opportunity to get things done,”said Mary Collins of the Office of Student Affairs.”Weve tried to cover every detail that a senior would possibly need.”

Resume writing and job-hunting assistance will be provided by WVU Career Services, and students can sign on with the Alumni Association and the Athletic Department to stay connected with WVU and the Mountaineers after graduation.

Other WVU units participating include the WVU Bookstore, Admissions and Records, Student Accounts and Financial Aid.

A new feature will be an opportunity for seniors to contribute to a Senior Gift and have their name added to the 2003 Mountaineer Mark, or plaque, that will be located on a new”Walk of Seniors.”To learn more, stop by the One-Stop Shop or call 304-293-5811.

The idea to set up a One-Stop Shop came from seniors serving on a Senior Year Experience Committee. The group agreed that establishing one convenient location where they could prepare for graduation would be beneficial.
