On Thursday, June 4, Loyola Academy welcomed alumni and students to campus for Young Alumni Networking Night, sponsored by LA Loyal, in the Loyola Academy Student Center. The event brought together 95 Ramblers, including 22 alumni mentors, 59 current students and 16 Young Alumni Chapter members for an evening of connection, conversation and career exploration.
Throughout the evening, alumni mentors shared their career journeys, offered advice and answered questions from students and young alumni. Representing a wide range of professional fields, including finance, business, engineering, real estate, nonprofit leadership, law, government and advocacy, the mentors provided valuable insight into navigating career paths, building professional relationships and preparing for future internships and job opportunities. Attendees also had the opportunity to have complimentary professional headshots taken.
