Alumni Returning for Under Construction: Building Your Future
By Shilo Rea
No one knows the twists, turns and opportunities available to CMU Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences students after graduation than the alumni who have been there and done that.
Nearly 40 Dietrich College alumni will return to campus on Nov. 19 for Under Construction: Building Your Future. They will share their experiences on how they used their CMU education to build successful careers in almost every industry and field imaginable. The daylong event will feature panel discussions on topics from consulting and the non-profit sector to graduate school and the arts and everything in between.
