SLĀ Speaker Series

It's hard to dream big when you're not sure what's out there. That's why the SLĀ Speaker Series seeks young professionals from a broad range of fields to help students discover the many career paths that are possible for them.

Speaking is a 90-minute commitment involving three components: the speaker's story, a discussion activity and a student survey.

Speaker's Story

The first 45 minutes of the class period are devoted to the speaker sharing their experiences of their adolescence, high school, college and their career.

Discussion Activity

The 30 minute activity is an opportunity for students to put themselves in the speaker's shoes. Design a fun and engaging activity that will have the students experience what a day in the office might feel like.

Student Survey

The last 10 minutes of the class period is devoted to a student survey that helps us understand what students are learning from speakers.
