Several hundred Haverford Students were treated
to a picnic on Founders Hall Green earlier this year as part
of an effort by the bi-college Career Development Office to
reach out and familiarize the students with their services in
career counseling and job searches. For their efforts, the staff
received the 2003 “Award for Innovation” from The
Eastern Association of Colleges and Employers, of which the
two schools are members.
With the help of Haverford’s
dining center, the conference office and the coordinator of
student activities, the Haverford/Bryn Mawr Career Development
office arranged for music throughout the picnic by a Haverford
radio station deejay, raffled prizes from local businesses and
restaurants, and offered students free photographs and caricatures
of themselves.
