The Men and Women of Color Leadership Conference (MWOCLC) is pleased to announce that it is organizing a Graduate School Fair that will take place on Friday, November 4, 2011 from 8:15 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. The conference is inviting representatives from IUB graduate departments to share information about their programs.
