Share your story and inspire an LSA student. We take a 21st century, digital-first approach to our outreach efforts so we can meet students in the moments that matter the most with aspirational and actionable alum-inspired content.
How you share your story with students is up to you – it can be a two-minute Alum Advice video you record that gets shared on the Hub’s LinkedIn or Instagram page or an article chalk-full of your insights as a subject matter expert that we publish to the entire LSA student body via our newsletter and website – LSA students are highly responsive to alum stories.
What kind of content should I share?
Some of the topics salient to students’ needs and wants include:
Real ‘hot takes’ about the challenges and lessons learned from your journey
Inspirational stories about staying true to your identity in the workplace
Actionable tips for how to make and maintain professional relationships
Life events that helped you discover more about yourself and what you find purposeful
Advice on the realities of making career pivots down the road
Thoughts on how to launch into life post-graduation, whether that’s grad school, a gap year, or a fulltime job
How do I get started?
Start by creating a profile on LSA Connect today, which is how you can tell us a little bit about you and how you’d like to share your story. The Alum Engagement team follows up with individuals within LSA Connect regularly. Or, you could email lsa-opphub@umich.edu.
