While Microsoft Excel first came out in 1985, the software continues to adapt and expand to meet the needs of our increasingly digital and data-driven world. Today it's not enough to say "it's all in the numbers"; you must explain your findings, often with the help of graphs, equations, and formulas.

Well, now is the time to update your Excel tool book to meet these demands and get the advantage in the office or classroom! Join us as the Murty Suntak Quantitative Computing Lab guides us in a workshop to sharpen our skills for the year ahead.

Please note that this is an intermediate-level workshop. If you have never used Excel or consider yourself an expert, we would ask you to wait and join us for a future program. Thank you!

Midterms don't always get the same attention as general elections, but this year it feels like all eyes are on November 8th. With all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and a third of the Senate up for grabs, there's potential for significant change in Washington.

However, there are also more unknowns than normal this year. Will the overturning of Roe v. Wade mobilize left-leaning voters? Will the Trump factor be a benefit or detriment to the Republican party? Join us as Zach Courser '99, Visiting Assistant Professor of Government, co-Director of the Policy Lab, and expert on American culture and politics, attempts to give us an insight into what we should expect for this year's biggest political event. Are we about to witness a major moment in American political history?

2022 is a weird time to be applying to college. Are virtual tours a viable alternative to visiting campus in-person? Are standardized tests back? How should I expect schools to compare virtual or pandemic grades to those from more normal times? The sad truth is that there's no simple answer. The good news, though, is that there's no one better equipped to answer these questions than CMC's incredible college admission team.

Join Jennifer Sandoval-Dancs, Associate Vice President for Admission and Financial Aid, as she attempts to answer these questions and more. This talk takes place just a few days before the first Early Decision deadline, so don't miss the opportunity to ensure your family is checking all the right boxes in this unique year.

Please note that this is not a talk specifically about getting into CMC, but a broad conversation on the college admission process.

Why do some people have far more Instagram followers than others? Are their pictures that much better? While that may be part of it, chances are the people with the most influence have taken the time to curate a cohesive online brand.

Join us in a discussion with some of CMC's biggest influences and social media representatives about the intricacies of building your brand online. Whether you want to build your online presence, are simply looking to better entertain your current followers, or something in between, this talk will have something for everyone.

Registration is forthcoming!

It's no secret that for much of history, there's been a 'standard mold' to America's diplomats and politicians. The good news is that nowadays, our public servants have more backgrounds and varying experiences than ever before. CMC has been a leader in this change, preparing the best leaders from all walks of life. Join us for a panel discussion with CMC alumni of all backgrounds as they discuss their path to government, foreign service, and policy-making and how we can continue to prepare the next generation of responsible leaders. Please check back for more information, including speaker names.
