Stay Connected / Provide Internship Opportunities
Greensboro College Alumni, are you interested in staying connected with your Alma Mater? There are several ways you can do so.
Offer an Internship Opportunity to Current Students
A great way of staying involved with Greensboro College and to give back is to provide internship opportunities to current students. Interns can offer fresh perspectives while helping with projects and increasing the visibility of your organization on campus. They can also be a pipeline of potential employees after graduation. If you are interested in offering opportunities, please complete this form and the Director of Career and Personal Development will be in touch with you.

More Ways to Stay Connected
If you are an alum willing to share your time, experiences and knowledge with our current students, please consider one of the options below or feel free to share other ideas with the Office of Career and Personal Development.
Please be certain to update us with your current employment information. Let us know what you’re doing!
CLD 3100 Experiencing Career & Life Directions Class Visits
The CLD 3100 Experiencing Career & Life Directions course is designed to help students discover and affirm their strengths, interests and career options. During these courses, students learn:
- What their interests are and how those interests might connect to majors and a potential career path
- How to craft effective, targeted resumes and cover letters
- How to conduct informational interviews
- Proper Interviewing Techniques
- The importance of effective networking
- How to use Social Media to brand themselves
Alumni are strongly encouraged and welcomed to visit these classes to be a guest speaker, do resume reviews, or to assist with Mock Interviews. To make arrangements, please contact Caryn J Atwater, Director of Career and Personal Development at (336)272-7102 xtn 5370 or via email at caryn.atwater@greensboro.edu.
Etiquette Luncheon/Dinners
Not all interviews and networking opportunities are held in an office setting. Sometimes they occur over a meal where there is an art to conducting oneself appropriately. Greensboro College students benefit tremendously from experiencing an “Etiquette” Luncheon or Dinner on campus. If you would like to sponsor such an event, please contact Caryn J. Atwater, Director of Career and Personal Development, at 336-272-7102, ext. 5370, or via email at caryn.atwater@greensboro.edu.
Pride Professional Clothing Closet
The Pride Professional Clothing Closet, housed in 301 Main Building, offers Greensboro College students gently used and new professional clothing appropriate for interviews and the workplace free of charge. Please consider making a donation of items that are current (styles within the last 5 years), clean and free from rips, tears and stains. Tax receipts are available upon request.
