“Links for Life” Graduate Student/Alumni Luncheon
Links for Life is a program designed to create “links” between members of the GWSB student and alumni population by offering a forum for them to connect. This program will give you access to alumni in an informal setting. You can gain professional insight and ask questions that you may not ask in an interview situation. You will also have the opportunity to speak with alumni about the current happenings and activities at GWSB.
The luncheon is scheduled for March 23rd from 12:15pm – 1:30pm in Duques 650. The lunch is free and space is limited, so we encourage you to register no later than Thursday, March 11th.
During the luncheon, students are asked to engage in a conversation with their GWSB Alumni table leader about their career path and how their education at GWSB guided their decisions. Students are also responsible for asking questions of the GWSB Alumni table leader to ensure the conversation keeps flowing. The objective of this program for students is to provide a forum for you to ask questions that you may not necessarily ask in an interview and gain insight into the course of study/career/industry that you are interested in pursuing. Please use this opportunity wisely to form a connection that could help you in the future.
Below are the list of Alumni Table Leaders. Please email Amy Schwartz with your name, degree, expected graduation year, and your rankings of Alumni Table Leaders.
