Faculty - Staff:  We are looking for participation from all undergraduate and some graduate departments. Major-Palooza is a great recruiting opportunity for departments to promote their majors and programs to a targeted group in a relatively short time frame.  

Major-Palooza, co-sponsored by Career Services and Gateway Programs/QUEST, typically has around 500 - 600 students and 50 departments representing over 75 majors attend this event each year. All undecided students from the Gateway/QUEST program are required to attend.   

Based on completed  student evaluations, over 50% of students tell us that after Major-Palooza, they are ready to declare a major! Furthermore, over 90% of students indicate that advisers, faculty, and/or student reps are the most helpful in helping them make a decision!
