We joined Loyola alumni and friends as they shared the unexpected twists, turns, and lessons from their own career paths. This candid panel reminded students that success can take many directions - what matters is finding the path that's right for you. 

Etiquette Dinner

Business is not always conducted in an office. Sometimes, it's over a meal or during a networking event. The point of dining and networking etiquette was to make students feel comfortable and confident, while enjoying a 3-course meal! 

Our facilitator, Ashley Ritter, is the senior director of engagement in the Office of Advancement and Alumni Engagement at North Park University. She is a leadership and career coach with over 15 years of experience across a variety of sectors including human resources, nonprofit management, healthcare, and higher education.
