Whitman Connections

The Whitman College Alumni Office and Career Center have again combined efforts to bring this annual career networking event to Seattle and Portland, and now THE BAY AREA! Please bring your business card, copies of your resume, information about internships or jobs in your company or organization, and any other career-related material you would like to exchange with fellow participants. Keep in mind that Whitman Connections 2005 is not a job fair. It is an opportunity to network with Whitman alumni, students and parents who work or seek work in the Seattle, Portland or Bay area.

Register by March 11, 2005, by using our Whitman Connections 2005 form.

Taking advantage of Whitman College's central location, we are offering alumni, parents and friends the opportunity to come to campus for a weekend in June to examine the subject of wine from the liberal arts perspective. We will hear from Whitman professors, alumni in the industry and local winemakers about the transformation of the Walla Walla valley.

Join us for Weekend College 2005.
