Conversations between University Scholars Program alumni and our current students can play an important role in helping current students as they prepare for life after graduation. In recent years, the USP has piloted a highly successful “Alumni Dinner Series.” This series encourages USP alumni to return to campus to speak with current students about their experiences in graduate and professional schools, as well as their professional experiences and achievements. Both alumni and current students have evaluated the series quite positively, and the USP plans to expand this series and similar efforts aimed at connecting our alumni with our current students. If you would be interested in returning to campus to participate in our Alumni Dinner Series or other Scholars Forum activities, please contact Alex Miller (919.515.2835; alex_miller@ncsu.edu) or Sean Cassidy (919.513.3984; sean_cassidy@ncsu.edu) to discuss this opportunity.
