The first of these sessions at the Buffalo Educational Opportunity Center (BEOC) will be information sessions to answer questions about law enforcement opportunities at UB. 

The information sessions will take place July 13 and July 14 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. These sessions will be the same so attendees only need to go to one.
