Calendar of Events

The Office of Human Resources is pleased to offer Zoom office hours for staff and faculty as an opportunity to ask questions, provide feedback and receive information on a variety of topics. We will review recent communications and important developments in the workplace as the semester progresses, and provide a resource takeaway to support effective communication within departments. You will also have opportunities to hear specific tips and best practice examples from other supervisors/department chairs.

Please see the OHR Newsletter or the Daily Mammoth for the Zoom link. You can also contact hr@amherst.edu for the access information.

We look forward to connecting with you!

Have you ever wondered what BMO stands for? Have you been considering whether finance, investment banking or investing in general is right for you? Are you curious what a SPAC is?

Now is your opportunity to LEARN. In this session, Mike Cippoletti ’94, Managing Director and Head of Food, Consumer & Retail at BMO Capital Markets, will first give a short (10 minute) presentation about BMO, including information on their diversity & inclusion initiatives. Then, his colleague, Brian DiCaprio, will provide an overview of SPACs and their rising prominence in the finance industry. After this 20-minute presentation, there will be time for Q&A, followed by breakout rooms for diversity candidates (BIPOC, Women, LGBTQ+ community, etc.) to meet with BMO representatives and hear firsthand what it’s like at the company.

Presenters strongly encourage attendees to read this quick primer on SPACs BEFORE the event, if possible: https://capitalmarkets.bmo.com/en/news-insights/covid-19-insights/specta...
