Excel allows us to create tables out of our data. This makes it easier to sort by a specific column, filter by different items in a particular column, create charts, and more.
Here are the first two of a planned series of tutorial videos on using Tables:

On Thursday, Nov. 7, at 3:00 p.m. in the Student Center Conference Room, Director of International Education Kera Bush-Turner and Director of Graduate Admissions Amo Kubeyinje will host a campus discussion entitled, “Strategies for Supporting International Students.”
In recent years, the university’s recruitment efforts have yielded an increase in international undergraduate and graduate students. Students have reported experiences with adjusting to the culture, food, weather, and academic expectations. This cultural competency session will provide demographic information for our international student population, discuss key international student regulations for the F-1 Student Visa, and explore effective strategies for supporting students navigating their education in the United States.
The fall series of the Joseph J. Naples Conversations in Christ and Culture Lecture Series at Canisius University continues Tuesday, November 19 when it welcomes author Michael Rizzi, EdD, to campus. Rizzi’s lecture, titled “An Americanized Jesuit Tradition of Education: Canisius’ Place in the Jesuit College Network,” takes place at 12:00 p.m. in the Regis Room of the Richard E. Winter ’42 Student Center and is free and open to the public.
Rizzi is the author of “Jesuit Colleges and Universities in the United States.” The book provides a comprehensive history of Jesuit higher education in the United States, weaving together the stories of the 54 colleges and universities that the Jesuits have operated, successfully and unsuccessfully, since 1789. In it, Rizzi emphasizes the connections among the institutions, exploring how certain Jesuit schools such as Georgetown University gave birth to others like Boston College by sharing faculty, financial resources, accreditation, and even presidents throughout their history. The book also explores how the colleges responded to common challenges including anti-Catholic prejudice in the United States, the push from government authorities to modernize their shared curriculum, and the pull from Roman authorities to remain loyal to Catholic tradition.
