Volunteer Opportunity! My Design Friday, Jan. 16, 2026, 10-11:45 a.m., Virtual/Remote

This online event connects students with alumni to explore career planning, job searching, and networking. These sessions will provide students with insight into how to leverage their liberal arts education, identify their personal and professional strengths, and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

We’re looking for alumni interested in sharing their experiences and helping to guide students as they navigate their future career paths. Volunteers will be grouped with a faculty member and other alumni volunteers to facilitate discussions with students. There’s no training or orientation needed; just join the Zoom session and jump right into the discussions.

If you're interested, please sign up via our online volunteer interest form and indicate “My Design” in the second to last question.
