The Oakland University Alumni Association (OUAA) is teaming up with its Student Alumni Association (SAA) to host a number of networking events next spring. SAA is a student organization open to current OU students who are interested in networking with alumni and learning professional skills to help them in the workplace after they graduate from Oakland.
The OUAA and SAA are seeking alumni volunteers to serve as mentors to current students during select professional development events on campus in March and April. For example, alumni volunteers may be asked to provide feedback on a student’s resume, “elevator speech”, and professional dress or host a small group of students for a dinner discussion surrounding a particular industry or career.
If you are interested in learning more about alumni-to-student mentoring opportunities, contact Luke Fleer, Associate Director for Alumni Engagement - Outreach, at fleer@oakland.edu.
