Students want to know about your career journey and how they might follow the same pathways. This is the perfect opportunity to share solicited advice and enjoy delicious refreshments all in one place. Feel free to bring your business cards to share with students. Not sure which school reception you should attend? No problem! We’ll guide you to the correct location based on your undergraduate major. All those who participate will receive a BC mouse pad and a Smitty’s coupon as a thank-you for volunteering.
