Hope you're all doing okay with all the unexpected events that have been happening and you're having some extra time to relax!

Just wanted to let everyone know that CRA is looking for students interested in E-board for the 2020/2021 school year! This is a great opportunity to connect professionally and create friendships with a great group of students.

There are 4 positions that are going to be open. These roles will be a perfect opportunity to build your resume as well.

We will be having an online information session via Zoom on Tuesday, March 24th at 6:30 pm and we hope you will join us to find out what CRA is all about. If you have any questions feel free to message our Internal VP, Courtney Monge (248-719-8342) or through the CRA Instagram ().

Happy Fall!! From now until November 7th, we are hosting a Yankee Candle Fundraiser in order to support our association and our annual corporate visits! These visits are vital to our organization because they help our members connect with companies and see first-hand what the company atmosphere is like. This also helps our members acquire internship and/or full-time opportunities. Feel free to buy a candle (or two!) to support CRA.
Go to yankeecandlefundraising.com and use group number 999982067 at checkout!
We thank you in advance for your support and consideration!
