LinkUp is a structured, low-key, networking event that connects current A&S undergraduate and graduate students with A&S alumni.
Meet alumni, discover shared interests, discuss professional plans and ideas, and start a mentoring relationship.
We welcome students of all class years and encourage you to come every year.
We will follow all COVID-19 protocols in place at the time of the event.

"Recent graduates are eager to come back and share their post- graduation experiences. Graduates realize how much their education benefits them once they are out in the world."
The best way to prepare: dress in "smart casual," be prepared to share a 30 second introduction of yourself - your elevator pitch, have a general list of questions you want to ask the alumni, and come ready to chat. It's that simple!
"A student from LinkUp contacted me about sitting down over coffee to chat about law school and law practice. I am happy to do that."
I most enjoyed that this was structured networking! This made it so much more comfortable and easier to talk to the alumni. I also really appreciated that it allowed me to meet other students in similar situations.
