Alumnae/Alumni Network

This objective focuses on utilizing Wells’s unique structure as a smaller institution to engage on a personal level to support students as they work to reach their full potential with mentorship and advising. Formalizing a mentorship framework will engage all levels of students in career development. Student success requires an integrated and proactive career development framework with a liberal-arts lens.
