Alumni host 4-6 casual dinners in their homes during the
academic year where the focus is on the student. This
award-winning program brings together UTSA students and
alumni volunteers who share the same career interest or
similar academic field of study. The alumni host can
offer the advice and direction that is most helpful to
the student, and the student learns about career paths
and job qualifications and how to network.
Students develop life-long career connections and
friendships with UTSA alumni.
