When it rains, it pours. With pun intended, I'd like to tell you about the deluge of special events happening at McCormack Graduate School this month. In the coming week, we are hosting a Careers in Aging event and co-hosting two major conferences -a cutting edge "Technological Innovation in Government" conference and "Bridging Global Religious Divides," a two-day instructional symposium celebrating the 100th birthday of alumnus and McCormack benefactor Benjamin Slomoff (Conflict Resolution, '97). |
