On Saturday, February 10th, Madison will be holding the 4th annual Alumni Career Day from 1:30-5 pm at Case Hall. Alumni Career Day is a program developed jointly between the JMC Student Senate and the JMC Alumni Association, and coordinated by the JMC Office of Career Development as a forum for current students to explore different career paths and to make connections with alumni. The program consists of a series of two panel discussions, each lasting about an hour.
In each of the past two years, the program has drawn nearly 100 students and enjoyed the participation of over 35 alumni. Both students and alumni alike have valued the opportunity to meet and interact with one another, and the program has helped a number of students make contacts that have eventually assisted with both job and internship searches.
Free Alumni/Student Reception at 4:30 in Case HallFollowing the panel sessions, an alumni and student reception, open to all area alumni, will begin at 4:30 pm in Club Spartan, third floor of Case Hall. All alumni are welcome even if you are not attending Career Day.
