Thurs., Nov. 7: Internship
Culture Shock Debrief @ Olin
12:00-1:00 p.m. / CC 209
We sometimes hear from students that they go to
internships or get jobs after graduation where the culture is VERY different
than Olin’s – especially students of color, women, and LGBTQ+ folks. This can
be particularly challenging when you are the only person, or one of the few
people, that you could identify with based on identity or background. Have
you encountered an internship or other experience like this? What was it
like? How did you cope or not cope so well? Join us for a discussion on what
the engineering world can feel like when you are the “only one” and how we
can build strategies for resilience and gathering allies.
Sun. & Mon., Nov.
10-11: MIX & Mingle Fly-In
Each fall, the Office of Admission & Financial Aid
(OAFA) and the MIX (Multicultural Innovators eXperience) student group
co-host a “fly-in” campus visit program for high school seniors with strong
potential for Olin who would not otherwise have the financial resources to
visit our campus. These students have the opportunity to stay overnight,
attend classes, and experience life on campus at no cost to them or their
families. We will have 30-35 eager and talented students participating.
You may see these students around campus—please stop and say hi!
