The Career Center offers a variety of opportunities for alumni of all decades to connect with current students and each other. Alumni have unlimited access to our services for the first three years after graduation, and alumni of 5+ years can have one advising session with referrals to additional resources. Our LinkedIn group, Lewis & Clark College Career Network, is a great way for alumni to connect to students and share career knowledge and expertise.
Alumni have unlimited access to our services for the first 3 years after graduation. While we look forward to serving alumni of all decades, appointments are based on availability. Priority is given to current students during the academic year. Alumni of 5+ years can typically expect one 1:1 advising session (possibly more during summer months) and referrals to additional resources. Â
