Out with Underground Copy and what was once People?s United Bank and in with the Career + Experience Hub.The Hub is an expansion of Career Services in the Living/Learning Center with a more casual atmosphere. Students are able to drop in at any time during the academic year for consultations related to ?a wide variety of opportunities,? Career Center Director Pamela Gardner said.?What we hope is that we make ourselves available where students are in a relaxed environment where they can come in and bring questions or concerns or whatever they?re thinking about,? Gardner said. The Hub, which opened Monday for the first time, is located in the former spaces of Underground Copy and People?s United Bank, the latter of which has been vacant since spring 2012. The new Davis Center location has been a long time coming for Career Services, an office that has petitioned for a more central location in the past, she said. ?We have been advocating for a space on central campus for probably about twenty years,? Gardner said. ?And when the Davis Center was being built there was a discussion that we would be in, and they decided there were other priorities. But now that the other stores are no longer in there we?re happy to have that space.? While the main office will remain in Living/Learning, Gardner said she hopes the new location will be more accessible to students on the go while still providing valuable assistance.Programs include weekly sessions at 4:15 p.m. every day, with r?sum? building on Mondays, internship opportunities on Tuesdays, study abroad information sessions on Wednesdays and job search workshops on Thursdays. At Monday?s opening, students could be seen milling in and out of the new space, remarking on the bright colors and minimal d?cor. Many were signing up for 10 minute appointment slots to meet with counselors, a feature of the Hub that most students interviewed for this article said they found appealing. Gardner is not alone in her enthusiasm for the new branch of Career Services. In a survey performed by the Student Government Association (SGA) last November, results found that a central location was very important to students as well.?Representatives from SGA and the GSS (Graduate Student Senate) have been key players in the development of the Hub because this is something students have been looking forward to for a while,? said Abu Rizvi, Dean of the Honors College. Rizvi said he hopes the Hub will help revitalize the Davis Center and turn it into a destination for students, not just a passageway through campus. ?It?s going to be a vibrant and active place ? after all, there?s a huge amount of traffic going through the tunnel, and to Brennan?s and the CatCard Center, which are the Hub?s neighbors,? he said. The official grand opening for the center, including a speech by President Sullivan, will be Oct. 8, Gardner said.The Hub is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Fridays.
