“The Grad Fair also helps build awareness of the many types of programs and schools available, especially in the region. The schools coming represent many different fields, from healthcare to law to humanities,” Gore continues. “Graduate school can open doors or be an important entry level for many careers and we're excited to offer this event to everyone as they consider the options and learn more about graduate education.”
