"Networking with CU Alumni: You Have a Friend in the Marketplace," a special panel discussion for students, will be held Wednesday, Sept. 18, at 4 p.m. in Old Main Chapel.
The panel is part of Career Services' three-day effort to provide several events related to job and career searches. The event is sponsored by the CU Heritage Center and Career Services.
Panelists include CU-Boulder alumni Ruth Keesling, an animal conservationist; Tony Ortega, a Denver-based artist; Richard Ortner, a 7News meteorologist; and Juliet Wittman, a journalist for Westword.
"Career Services events like this one help support students through the transition from student life to career positions in both prosperous and challenging economic times," said Jane Rogers of Career Services. "This panel is one more opportunity for students to connect with people who have made that transition successfully."
Â鶹ÒùÔº will be able to interact one-on-one with CU alumni at a reception to follow at the CU Heritage Center, located on the third floor of Old Main. The reception is free and open to the public.
"This is a way for CU Heritage Center to extend the scope of the museum and facilitate the connection between CU students and alumni," said Tori Peglar, outreach coordinator of the Heritage Center.
The CU Heritage Center is sponsored by the CU-Boulder Alumni Association. For information call (303) 492-6329.
