LOUISVILLE, Ky. 鈥 The College of Business will continue its support of Portland Elementary School students with a special 鈥淧rofessional Signing Day鈥 today.
UofL staff members along with representatives from local businesses will talk to Portland students about their jobs. Every Portland student will receive a t-shirt on which to write the name of a future potential profession.
The students at Portland Elementary have been adopted by the College of Business in a program called the Elevate Portland Initiative. Since the fall, students, faculty and staff from the college have donated warm clothing, snacks and tablet PCs to the West Louisville elementary school, which is part of UofL鈥檚 Signature Partnership Initiative.
The day鈥檚 activities begin at 12:30 p.m.; t-shirts will be signed beginning at 3 p.m.. For more information, contact UofL professor Beth Davis-Sramek, 502-974-4726.
