At the risk of sounding like a nosy parent, I ask you: "What are you going to do with your life?!" Come up with a witty response after attending the 8th Annual West Coast Career Expo. The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) is providing you with an opportunity to meet with companies and agencies like Ford Motor Co., Hewlett Packard, and Honeywell at the Marriott University Park Hotel from 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. today. There will be workshops, seminars and a Career Fair/Exhibit. While open to all students, the workshops cater particularly those wishing to enter the technical fields.

As an alternative to tackling them on their way to class, UA athletes are offering you the chance to meet them Saturday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Wildcat Sports Experience. Show up at the Bear Down Field for interactive games, autographs and the opportunity to take your picture with various UA sports stars. The event is free, but you still have to contact the McKale Ticket Office at 621-2287 for more information.
What better way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon than at the opera? Make your weekend an experience in musical culture by getting tickets for the UA Opera's matinee showing of The Barber of Seville. Composed by Gioacchino Rossini, the opera was originally sung in Italian, but Charles Roe (stage director) and Jindong Cai (music director and conductor of UA Opera Theater) have arranged for it to be performed in English. The show is presented by the UA School of Music and Dance, and curtains will rise on the Crowder Hall stage at 3 p.m. Call the Fine Arts Box Office at 621-1162 for ticket information.
