This Fri., May 8 join us in FOSS 5116 from 1-2:30 p.m. for a discussion about what it takes to uncover what you want from a career.
When we were young and plotting our career paths and personal lives, most of us thought very little of the day we might have to reinvent ourselves. This is approached with maybe some deeper digging than we could have ever thought necessary. For this deeper career excavation, we need to identify personal meaning and pleasure indicators and how they intersect with our strongest skills.
Please join us this Friday (5/8) and share your experiences on this subject. We’ll talk about six basic pathways suggested by career coach, Cheryl Simpson.
Settled on a job choice? As always, the floor is open for sharing how you found your path, along with the ups and downs of your job search and strategies; all with the usual delicious coffee, snacks, and networking.
Hope to see you this Friday – and as always: Good Luck Out There!

In advance of President Obama’s Commencement address at Lake Area Technical Institute in South Dakota on Friday, the White House is running a campaign to create a conversation about his free community college for all initiative. To add your voice to the conversation, head to the White House page here and give them your story about how you personally #ReachHigher and what influences in your life made your education possible.
We’ll also be running around campus Thurs., May 7 collecting stories for our own social media campaign. So if we catch you at the PUB or between classes, please stop and talk to us about what makes college so important to you. If we don’t cross paths with you, head to Twitter and follow us at @shorelinecc and also follow the hashtags #CommunityCollege and #CollegeOpportunity and contribute to the dialogue about how college should be available to all.
Why do we care what the White House is doing? Well, we at Shoreline have our own free college movement right here in our own community called Shoreline Scholars. It’s how we are trying to #closethegap. But it’s going to take more than us – it’s also going to take you! So raise your voice and let the White House know that you support the #ReachHigher and #CollegeOpportunity campaigns by telling your story.
