quidproCareer Day 2021 featured over 50 speakers who shared their educational and professional experiences with our students and faculty. These honest and engaging individuals came from a wide range of professions, including: banking/wealth management; engineering; entrepreneurship; entertainment/media; video game development; social and legal justice; education; public policy; and environmental and mental health. They offered a great deal of advice, including the importance of selecting a career that is meaningful, that fills you with passion, and to remaining resilient, disciplined, and humble. We thank all of our speakers for donating their time and lending their insights and experiences to our students. HUGE shout-outs, too, to the talented planning committees for both Creativity Week and Career Day 2021!!
