Supporting the Career Development Needs of Your Student
by Kimberly Betz, Director of Career Development
Wondering about what your student will do after graduation? Not sure what major your student will choose? Want to help with career concerns, but are unsure how to assist her?
If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, you are not alone. Many parents and families tell us that they are concerned about their student starting college, about what she will do after graduation, and how she can best prepare.
When your student enters college, she is beginning a life-changing experience that will expose her to new ideas, lessons and opportunities. This may be challenging for her, and for you in your support role.
