Career Services Radio comes to an end for this semester

Because Jon and me are getting preoccupied with our studies as the term approaches the end, we have decided to call the show off. We thank you for visiting our site and listening to our program. We hope to hear suggestions from you so hopefully we can make a better show in the future! We can be reached at bzhang1_at_swarthmore.edu.

Good luck!
