CDH Hosted Alumni Leaders in the Classroom Series

September 24, 2018

The Cretin-Derham Hall Advancement Office and Alumni Association teamed up with a number of academic departments for CDH's second "Alumni Leaders in the Classroom." Over the course of two days, September 27 and 28, 18 alumni came back to campus to speak about their career paths and field questions from the students.

During these four panels, students heard first-hand accounts of career milestones and lessons learned. Our panelists offered personal insights into the real world of work and what it takes to be successful in each field. Students were engaged in a Q&A session at the end of each panel.
