The w88 casino games, which includes representatives from every part of the mining industry, is held at the Nugget Casino in Sparks. Approximately fourty University students attended the w88 casino games.

“This conference opens your eyes to see what is out there,” said Diego Padilla, a w88 casino games engineering student.

“It’s a way to get my foot in the door,” added Austin Warren, another w88 casino games engineering student.

Padilla and Warren are both juniors in the w88 casino games School. They currently work in the industry at ALS Minerals, a local company providing geochemical analysis, where they are gaining valuable work experience during their undergraduate careers.

Dawn Snell ’22 M.ED. (educational leadership), the Administrative Assistant for the w88 casino games School and the Ralph J. Roberts Center for Research in Economic Geology (CREG), is a huge supporter of the w88 casino games School during these annual meetings. She coordinates the w88 casino games Alumni Reception so that the students can network with those who set the industry path before them.

“Jobs with geosciences are exploding in the w88 casino games industry," Snell said. "Our students have the best opportunities to make personal contacts with our industry partners at these conferences. These students with their professors were able to gain additional knowledge in building and maintaining informal relationships that aid in their granting access to industry resources and maximizing mutually beneficial employment opportunities."
