Recently, the University of Oregon Athletic Department in conjunction with the Order of the ‘O’ announced its partnership with Career Athletes to help provide additional career education, guidance, and networking opportunities for both former and current collegiate athletes. We would like letter winners from all sports to become a part of this network. Please register as an alumnus of the University of Oregon today at http://www.careerathletes.com. You will receive announcements on upcoming events, networking functions and other related information on behalf of our athletic department and the Order of the ‘O’.
For those of you who are working in your chosen field of interest, you can become a mentor to recent graduates who are trying to establish themselves in the job market and/or to current undergraduate student-athletes. Do you remember what it felt like to walk in their shoes and wonder what you were going to do when you graduated? Current student-athletes and recent graduates are eager to connect and learn about your success post-athletics! Be the motivating force in their lives that helps them prepare for life after athletics. Click the following link to sign up as a mentor today! http://www.careerathletes.com/mentor_signup.php.
