Networking Day 2008
Saturday, February 9, 2008


It’s time for Dickinson’s annual Networking Day—a day for alumni to return to campus and talk with students about starting their careers.

The speaker at this year’s Etiquette Luncheon will teach you how to tackle French Onion Soup, a whole cherry tomato in your salad and the proper way to twirl pasta. His discussion of international business dining and etiquette will cover the proper usage of chopsticks and explain the differences between European and American dining styles—very important information for today’s global businesses!

Besides the regular break-out sessions, we have a few alumni-only opportunities in the afternoon:

  • learn the art of negotiating
  • arrange a one-on-one career consulting appointment for your specific questions
  • enjoy networking at the Alumni Mixer.

For alumni, there is no charge for any of the day’s events because you are providing a service to our students. Travel costs and overnight accommodations are, however, at your own expense. A block of rooms has been reserved at the downtown Comfort Suites hotel. Contact the hotel at (717) 960-1000 by February 1 to receive the Networking Day group rate of $90.

Please RSVP by Friday, Feb. 1, 2008.
You may register using our convenient online form.
