    Day 1: The first day is focused on career-industry exploration. We want to offer three breakout sessions:

    - Students who are completely undecided.

    - Students who have a few interests, but want to validate decisions.

    - Students who know what they want to do, but need help navigating next steps.

    Sessions take place Thursday, July 24, at Tykeson Hall. Time TBA.

    Day 2: The second day is focused on finding a job and getting hired. Topics might include: job searching, resumes, cover letters, interviews, LinkedIn, etc. We want to offer breakout sessions for each group:

    - Students who don't yet have a resume or cover letter.

    - Students who have a resume and cover letter, but want help revising their work.

    - Students who feel confident about their resume and cover letter. They want help in another area.

    Sessions take place Friday, July 25, at Global Scholars Hall. Time TBA.

    Day 3: The third day is focused on building skills for the workforce. Topics might include: leadership, teamwork, collaboration, communication, work ethic, adaptability, etc.
