PSU HRMA Recruiting Update
We are very pleased to announce that HRMA is up to 56 members.
During spring term we ALL need to promote HRMA leadership positions to students who are not members already and who will attend PSU next school year. This is important to ensure the continued success of our chapter. If you are a member who will be around next year, please express interest right away since elections are just around the corner. Thanks!
