The Leaders of the Line is the latest group of Muskingum University students to participate in the longstanding tradition of a Professional Skills Development dinner.
A partnership of the Impact Center and the Alumni Office, these dinners help guide students as they prepare to interview and have professional meetings over meals, provide opportunities to network with alumni, and help build professional skills for social settings.
Muskingum University faculty have the unique opportunity to share their work in their professional fields with each other through a Brown Bag series each semester.
Muskingum University’s Spring 2024 semester will feature a wide variety of vibrant arts events.
As of Jan. 1, 2024, Muskingum University added Martin Luther King Jr. Day as an observed University holiday. Classes are not scheduled and offices are closed.
While traditionally classes were not held on this holiday to allow students to participate in service-learning projects organized by the University, the designation of Martin Luther King Jr. Day as an observed University holiday expands these opportunities to employees.
