Student Alumni Career Networking Luncheon

On November 13 the Student Alumni Association put together a Career Networking Luncheon. The panel consisted of recent Communication graduates Lisa Larson, '01 (The Spectrum), Ben Kroff, '02 (The Boulevard) and Bret Nelson, '06 (Leavitt Group). They answered questions from those in attendance about current hiring trends, what a resume should look like and what it is really like to be in the workforce.

We would like to thank our presenters for taking time out of their busy schedules and in some cases traveling to Cedar City to participate in our panel. Their insights shared will prove to be very valuable to future graduates as they prepare to enter the workforce.

Zion Alliance

On Wednesday, November 12, 2008, Southern Utah University formed educational alliance with the Zion Park Group, marked by a formal signing ceremony between SUU, Zion National Park, Cedar Breaks National Monument and Pipe Spring National Monument at the Zion National Park Nature Center.

The SUU Alumni Relations office was proud to be involved in this event. It was a day full of fun and history making. It is truly a privilege to expand our partnerships with the national parks in southern Utah. They are filled with majestic beauty and amazing opportunities for learning.
Thank you to Zion National Park, Cedar Breaks National Monument and Pipe Spring National Monument for your hospitality and willingness to partner with SUU. We look forward to many great experiences to come.



This partnership speaks to SUU’s continued commitment to providing unique educational opportunities that capitalize on the University’s business relationships, local resources and surroundings – taking education far beyond the walls of the classroom.
