Thirty-five mentors representing 17 fields will be on campustonight ready to give an insider view of how the real world reallyworks.

“View From The Top is the best way to ask some ofDallas’ most successful executives the questions you reallywant to know, but are afraid to ask during an interview,”said Frank Roby, president of Holmes Murphy/Texas — the maincorporate sponsor of the event. “These executives are allwilling to share their insights and experiences with SMUstudents.”
