From portfolios to pizza, fall A&S career events explore diverse fields

Students can hear from alumni with careers in fields ranging from digital technology to law to entrepreneurship to art to human resources and even to pizza during events this fall hosted by the College of Arts & Sciences Career Development office.

"We encourage students to explore, expand and connect as they think about their future endeavors," said Jen Maclaughlin, director of career development for A&S. "Alumni connections are an essential part of all three of these learning outcomes. By connecting with alumni, they can explore and learn more about career opportunities that may be of interest, without having to commit the time to pursue an internship or class."

The series kicks off Sept. 13 with a career conversation featuring Lawrence Gleason '88, who will talk about his career path and experience as an entrepreneur, an attorney and an executive in wireless communication firms. The talk is from 2:30-3:30 p.m. Students can register on Handshake to find out more details and the talk location.
