What is ASK Night?

What is ASK Night?

ASK Night is a reception that provides Puget Sound students and alumni an opportunity to discuss life at and after Puget Sound. As a student, you will learn about the variety of career fields our graduates enter, the voluntary associations they join, and how their lives are enriched through their liberal arts education. Alumni may have information about particular fields or advice about courses to take, extracurricular activities, the graduate school admission process, or how to conduct an effective job search. Some may have job leads. Many will also have questions about you and the campus today. The reception allows an exchange of information between alumni and students which can benefit everyone.

Is ASK Night only for seniors looking for work?

No. ASK Night is for all students. Alumni can share knowledge and advice which can help you in your undergraduate experience as well as your post-graduate pursuits. They are also interested in hearing about your experiences on campus.

How will I know who to talk to?

The alumni (wearing nametags) will be situated by general area of academic study (humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences and math).  To get the most out of ASK Night, review our networking tips as well as the alumni participants before the event.  During the reception, alumni leaders, staff, and peer advisors will be available to help you to identify particular alumni.
