After a lengthy career in the juvenile justice system, I embarked on a new journey with Career Services. I am almost three months into my new journey. I am a 1-person department at a business school. I also teach two externship classes. I have gained lots of insight from meeting with and shadowing a Career services Director from a sister campus and from the former Director who has been gracious to offer assistance when she is available. Juggling the different responsibilities has been the biggest hurdle. Our campus has an open door policy for our students, meaning that students are free to stop in the office with or without an appointment, so many days are unpredictable and atr times, other tasks are left incomplete. Any advice on how to better balance the work day?

I have found out that now we will have to have a third party verify our work. Sometimes it's hard enough to get students to call you back and now we have to pay for someone else to come in and do the same thing we are already doing? One other barrier to employment that wasn't mentioned in this first topic is drugs. The government doesn't require a student to be drug free when they apply for FAFSA but we are required to assist them in finding work even when we know they aren't drug free. I don't think someone should be given a school loan through our tax dollars if they can't be drug free.

Dear Professor, While traditional colleges spend a lot of resources on focused alumni fund-raising, this course discourages it. I don't feel there was clear reasoning behind it. Can you please elaborate for me? Thanks. Laurie

How do you suggest recruiting alumni to join the new Alumni Association who have been out of school for several years?

At my school, students must first graduate from our program -- and then sit for a state board examination before they are allowed to be placed in a job. So many of them procrastinate in taking the exam -- rendering the placement department ineffective. Any suggestions?

I have just taken over the student services position at my school (I had previously been in Financial Aid). One thing we have trouble with is staying in touch with grads. I would like to begin building an Alumni Community for our grads. We already have a facebook page, but it gets VERY LITTLE traffic. Any other suggestions to jumpstart a program for Alumni?
