Columbia GS is hosting a networking night on Monday, February 23 in Pulitzer Hall, bringing GS alumni and current students together for engaging, informative, high-impact conversations. Designed as a speed networking event, alumni will host tables while students rotate through to connect, ask questions, and learn directly from GS professionals across a wide range of industries.
“GS students and alumni have always represented an incredible range of experiences, and this event brings that diversity to life,” said Izabela Rutkowski, GS Director of Alumni Relations. “What makes this event especially exciting is how eager the alumni are to connect, share their stories, and support the next generation of GS students.”
The event will also include a pre-event discussion at 5pm with alumna Elle Littlefield, ’12GS—founder and CEO of Career Well and a CAA Board member—on Making the Most of Networking Conversations. Littlefield will also be hosting a held desk during the speed networking where students can receive immediate, practical career advice.
This dynamic new event offers a unique opportunity to strengthen alumni-student connections and celebrate the depth and versatility of the GS community.
