Lisa--

Having graduates come to orientation is an excellent practice. After all, that is the whole point of enrolling--to prepare for a career! The use of current students to help 'show them the ropes' is also a great idea. Students are more apt to ask each other questions than staff members. It also helps it to feel more like a family atmosphere which is helpful for retention purposes. Kudos!

We have had graduates come to orientation and be in the step with career services. They discuss their success and also how they felt when first coming to the school and how they overcame their fears. We also use current students as tour guides for orientation.
