Read this Great UToday story about the Alumni Panel by Betty Rice, HERE.
On April 4, the Education Alumni Association hosted a session with the undergraduate class of 2012, the students about to enter into the workforce—450 new alumni. We presented a panel of classroom teachers, fellow Alumni, to tell the graduating class about those first few years of teaching, and to answer their questions about what to expect. Thank you to Jessica, Jocelyn, Mike, Teresa, Jennifer and Michael, who volunteered to share your experiences!

Alumni profiles: Several Alumni have shared stories about what they have been up to since graduation. Our long-term goal is to have enough profiles able to organize them by decade, or ideally, by the graduating year. So, you are invited to get in touch with the Education Alumni, and tell us:
--your degree and when you graduated (e.g. BEd '87, MA ' 05, PhD Educational Technology '98)
--what you've been doing since you graduated
--how you stay connected to the U of C
--what you've been doing since you graduated
--how you stay connected to the U of C
We are hoping for submissions of up to 500 words and a photo!
Email your profiles to us at edalumni@ucalgary.ca
