"Get Real!" Series Kicks Off Spring Semester with "How to Avoid Marrying an Idiot"

Posted on Monday, February 4, 2008

Westminster College kicks off the spring semester sessions of its "Get Real!" life preparation series Thursday, Feb. 7, with "How to Avoid Marrying an Idiot" presented by Dr. William Evans, Westminster professor of counselor education.

The session focuses on how to choose well when entering a relationship.

Sponsored by the Office of Student Affairs, the "Get Real!" series acquaints students with life after college. It provides helpful advice on financial planning; banking; medical care; consumer and personal legal matters; apartment, auto, and house hunting; getting the most out of leisure activities; and preparing for lifelong relationships.

Each session covers a different topic and runs from 12:40-1:50 p.m. in the Witherspoon Lakeview Room. Attendance is limited to 25 students, with preference given to juniors and seniors. Three additional sessions are scheduled for the spring semester: "Investing for the Good Life (Intermediate Investing)," Feb. 21 and April 10; and "Navigating the Insurance Policy Rapids," March 6.
