WAUKESHA – The University of Wisconsin-Waukesha will host “The Ultimate Road Trip: Campus 2 Career,” a free success presentation for first-year college students, on Tuesday, August 24, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre on campus at 1500 N. University Dr., Waukesha. The program is being delivered on campuses across the nation this fall to more than 350,000 first-year college students.
It emphasizes the importance of academics, time management, setting goals and maximizing opportunities both in college and in future careers. “Currently, only 70% of college freshmen progress to their sophomore year,” said JR Cifani, Vice President of Making It Count. “We are providing students with a map to realize their goals and ambitions.”
The free program complements the efforts of the Student Services staff. Students participate in it through interactive exercises and by following along in a workbook. Reviews provided by past participants have indicated how very valuable this has been.
The powerful career resources of Monster back this program’s success. More information and key content from the presentation can be found online at www.makingitcount.com or contact Tabatha Riegler of Monster at (513)619-5630.
