Spring has arrived, and there are plenty of opportunities to celebrate at TU. Spend time outside cheering on the Tigers in baseball, softball, lacrosse and tennis; take to the pool for swim lessons or stand-up paddleboard yoga; or head to the Science Complex roof to see the stars after the public planetarium show. You can also connect with on-campus job opportunities, delve into the world of thriller and fantasy fiction, explore international humanitarian work at the sixth-annual Global Humanities Lecture, enter a cupcake decorating competition or learn how to negotiate like a pro. Here's what's happening on campus this week.
