Cuatro: Support Diana Portillo in the March of Dimes Walk

Diana is participating in the walk this weekend would love a donation to help out premature kids, show her some Shpeluv via: http://www.walkamerica.org/deelove324.

Cinco: Congresso, Exito, Philip Poczik and SHPE

One particular program that they run is called ÉXITO. It is an after-school program that promotes work readiness for students age 14-19. We are partnering with EXITO to host a Networking Suite Simulation for about 35 high school students on Thursday, May 24, 2007 from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. We are looking for 10 - 20 leadership-minded Drexel students to serve as the mock company representatives for the simulation. We want to recruit a diverse group of students who will be representative of the multicultural nature of corporate America today—particularly I want them to see Latinos and people who look like them so they know they too can succeed!

Participating means:
Providing an ex. of prof. attire, speech and behavior
Assuming identity of fictional professional
Engaging students in convos based on a prepared outline
Give a short evaluation to the student of how they did
Networking with Congresso and other agencies.

If you wanna get down email Kelly Lopez (kal57@drexel.edu)

That's it chicas!
