Career Services Workshops

Welcome. On behalf of the Student Life team, I would like to extend our thanks and appreciation for your continued support of our endeavors. Please know that we are dedicated to educating students about all aspects of the career development process by focusing on the whole person. We know how important your classroom teaching is to the development of all students, and we believe our work with students will better complement that process and could be greatly enriched with your additional support and feedback.

To that end, we strive to offer excellent service to our students and would appreciate your feedback and assistance in making this a reality. I would enjoy meeting with you to generate new initiatives that will foster increased collaboration.

Sincerely,
Katlin Hecox, Director of Career Services

What to Tell Recruiters
Faculty members are frequently approached by recruiters for referrals of students for employment. If you receive requests, feel free to forward the information to our office or instruct employers to visit our website. By working together, we can help our students achieve their goals. Take a look at our student resources and employer resources to see what's going on at the CSC. Remember, all of our services are available to students, alumni, faculty, and staff.
