Mission Statement

Career Services is committed to empowering students and alumni as they make meaningful connections with and contributions to the world in the career development process. To achieve this mission, we work in cooperation with:

Students
Career Services fosters student awareness of career development as a lifelong and dynamic process. We provide opportunities for occupational exploration, self-assessment and preparation for attaining short and long-term goals through comprehensive services, programs, resources and experiential education. Our goal is to help students discover, appreciate, develop and apply the unique combination of interests, talents, experiences and values that they possess.

Alumni
Recognizing that career planning and development is a lifelong process, Career Services helps alumni continue to make informed decisions regarding occupational choices and life transitions. Alumni also have the opportunity to enhance the career development of others through participation in various programs.

Employers
Career Services collaborates with employers, volunteer representatives and graduate and professional school officers through educational and recruitment programs. These relationships enable us to remain current on employment trends and practices, to share this information with current students, alumni and the campus community and to educate our professional partners about the value of a liberal arts education.

Parents
We're here to help your son or daughter succeed by fostering student awareness of career development as a lifelong and dynamic process.
