  • Yes or no? Lessons of a campaign scheduler

    Yes or no? Lessons of a campaign scheduler

    February 22nd @ 11 AM in the Johnson Hall Auditorium

    Join the College of Business for the spring semester’s Tech Talk series! This program features faculty/staff that have extraordinary stories or experiences to share…or maybe a unique hobby or interest. We will feature a different guest speaker each session, giving each 17 mins to present and allowing time for discussion, questions, etc.

    Real connections with the TN Tech family of faculty and staff are becoming increasingly important in student persistence efforts. As you explore and engage in transformational experiences on campus, why not come see a side of us that is both engaging and potentially transformational.

    Any questions about this event can be sent to Clay Wesley at cwesley@tntech.edu.
