Lyon College will have its fall 2022 Career Expo for current students, alumni and the community from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 13, in the Becknell Gymnasium on the Lyon College campus, 2300 Highland Rd., Batesville.
Recruiters from business and industry, as well as university graduate programs, will be on hand for the event designed to introduce both Lyon College students and other interested persons to potential future employers, internships and graduate studies.

Employers want to be here; they’re ready to be back on the Lyon College campus.”
