Speed Networking is back! Last year we saw how productive - and fun - this event can be, and we have a new lineup of alumni ready to help our juniors and seniors make the connections that will matter as they prepare to jump into the job market.

Spend the evening this November meeting the ones who can help you find your dream job - or, if you're an alum who wants to help out our current students, come to share your own experience and meet the people who will soon shape our workforce.

Willamette alumni garner awards...for strange career paths?

Willamette alumni find their way to some interesting jobs. Some acquire job titles that are familiar, of course, and some find those that are non-traditional. Some alumni do jobs you might never have even heard of.

Moreover, many Willamette grads end up in places they would never have imagined when they chose their major.

We decided to investigate. We developed a “You’re Doing What with Your Degree?” event and ended up recognizing six alumni in particular for taking unique or unexpected career paths and ending up in some truly remarkable places.
