Career Connectors


Career Connectors bring together current students seeking professional career advice, experience and connections with LR alumni and friends.

Serve as a point of contact with current students and alumni by providing professional assistance and career advice as needed while building, maintaining and enhancing the relationship between the university and our corporate friends.  

Career Connectors is a group of alumni and friends who are willing to help university students and alumni with career connections and information when needed.

You must be willing to serve a one-year term that runs concurrently with the university’s fiscal year (June 1-May 31). Volunteers can begin service at any point in the year and can serve consecutive terms if in good standing.
