With the end of the Fall Quarter, the RWC Bookstore will be changing its operating hours in preparation for book buybacks and returns. Buyback will begin November 22 and run through December 11. All rental books need to be returned by December 11, when the store will be open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Bookstore will also be open on January 2, 2011, from 12 p.m. until 4.p.m.
Also, Follett Higher Education Group, the parent company of the RWC Bookstore, will be holding a national contest in which students will be asked to create a marketing campaign for the bookstores. The winners will get to see their ideas brought to life in over 700 stores across the nation.
The winning team of three individuals will win a paid summer internship at Follett’s Home Office, in their Integrated Marketing Department. This includes housing.
All of the finalists will also have the opportunity to present their projects live in Chicago for a panel of their Senior Marketing Specialists and visiting representatives from national advertising agencies and PR firms.
