Waves Hiring Waves
While the economy may be on the rise, many are still searching for jobs. If there are any openings in your company, please consider posting them on PAN Online.

Not in a position to hire? Talented students are always looking for companies to contribute their time and energy. Your experiences in the trenches, professional insights, and early career lessons are priceless. Consider becoming a Career Mentor or hiring an intern. Chris Walters ('03) frequently employs interns for Stiletto Entertainment. He states, "I was given many opportunities as an undergrad … opportunities that led me to where I am today. I think it is only right to pay it forward and help out someone who is in the same position as I once was. It's a great feeling to see someone with potential, give them an opportunity, and watch them grow as a result." Post an internship with one of the Pepperdine career offices.

Pepperdine Community Gathers to Celebrate Christmas
In the heart of the Malibu campus, the Pepperdine community assembled for a special tree lighting ceremony. Highlights included musical performances by students, passages read by children of faculty and staff members, and a candle lighting while the crowd sang Silent Night. The evening concluded with a beautiful Christmas tree lighting. Live the moment online with a video filmed and edited by student JJ Starr.
