SUMMARY:ASO October General Forum
DESCRIPTION:Topic: “Positioning yourself beyond the gowns in the modern world”.\n\nContext: People tend to fantasize about realities\, especially about what to expect after completing a series of activities. Hence\, some do ignore important parts of their lives while being deeply indulged in these imaginations. Students pursuing graduate studies are often caught in such scenarios due to a lack of information and adequate preparation.  To preclude such situations among members and friends of our organization\, the African Students Organization is organizing a talk as part of its October General Forum with the theme “positioning yourself beyond the gowns in the modern world”. Invited speakers are former students and members of the organization who are now accomplished in their fields (see the flyer).\n\n It promises to be highly impactful! Don’t miss it!
