ALTERNATIVE CAREER PANEL TODAY!

The 2L class is co-sponsoring TODAY's “Alternative Career Panel” with the 3L class and career services.  The idea behind this event is to showcase non-traditional job opportunities for J.D. graduates.  

As we ALL know firsthand, the job market is terrible right now.  As such, lets do our part to maximize possible job options to our classmates.

Member of the Class of 2011:

I am pleased to share Reunion Weekend is fast approaching and I invite you to participate in our activities taking place on October 16-18, 2009 and assist me by encouraging your classmates to volunteer as well.

Volunteering during reunion is fun! It also provides numerous opportunities to speak directly with Albany Law alumni.  I must share, several students gained internships, summer and post graduate positions because of reunion volunteering/networking last year and I envision the same for this year.  We are expecting alumni attendance to be the highest ever!   I have outlined the numerous available student volunteer roles below.

We will be holding two Volunteer Information (PIZZA) Sessions in Room W120 prior to reunion: Tues., Oct 13 from 4:15-5:15 p.m. and Wed., Oct 14 from 11:45 a.m to 12:45 p.m.  You will receive your volunteer long-sleeve t-shirt and a complimentary ticket to attend the picnic at that time as well as additional instructions for the specific activities. You are welcome to volunteer for more than one event. 

Please contact me at cseba@albanylaw.edu or ext. 3361 to sign up today!  I will be asking you for the following: Name, Class Year, Event(s) you are interested in volunteering for, t-shirt size (S - XXL), Cell Number and Info Session you will be attending.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!  Your involvement makes reunion weekend a success!
