Bring in a Department Speaker
The Center for Life Beyond Reed is excited to collaborate with other departments and offices to provide career education tailored to the specific needs of your students.
We are happy to host departmental events at Prexy, and we are also happy to come to where your group meets elsewhere on campus.
Please view our Programming Menu to see the programs we offer for your students and to proceed with scheduling an event with us.
Share Student Success
We find that we are most successful in helping students with academic and career planning when we follow the successes of our Reed graduates. Share the post-graduate success stories of your former students so that we can keep track of where our young alumni thrive after graduation. Email our office or call us at 503-788-6690.
