JCPenney and the UToledo Rocket Career Center are partnering to provide the campus community an exclusive opportunity to shop for discounted professional clothing and accessories.

From 3 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 25, UToledo students, alumni, faculty and staff can shop in-store at JCPenney at Franklin Park Mall and receive 30% off using their special JCPenney Rocket Suit-Up discount coupon. Check in with the Rocket Career Center at the entrance near the salon.

Starting at 2:45 p.m., the Rocket Career Center will offer shuttles to and from campus for the Suit-Up Event. Pickup will be in Area 11, south of the Snyder Memorial Building, near the “TOL–EDO” letters. Shuttles will run continuously throughout the event to provide transportation for current students.

Attendees can shop online or in-store using their discount coupon. A virtual coupon is available for those who cannot attend in person by texting “UTOLEDO” to 67292.

This year’s Rocket Suit-Up event takes place during Rocket Family Weekend, giving students and their families an opportunity to kick off the weekend together while students prepare for fall career fairs, interviews and other professional opportunities.
