阿尔图纳,爸爸. — Citing a passion to provide ongoing care for 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校 and its students, 25美元的礼物,000 has been made to the college’s Career 关闭t by Deedra "Dede" Kazmaier and named to honor the dedication to the college she and her late husband, 约翰, 共享.
约翰P. 和Deedra M. Kazmaier Family Program Endowment to Support 职业服务 at 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校 is the first commitment of its kind. It will provide financial support for the Career 关闭t which offers appropriate professional clothing for students to use for interviews, 网络事件, 招聘会和会议.
“The familiar expression ‘You don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression’ has special personal meaning to me because an integral part of my lifelong career has focused on helping people to present themselves well,德德·卡兹梅尔说, who has made a life-long career as a businesswoman and a self-employed professional image consultant. “形象至关重要。. It is the initial statement to others about who you are, and a positive self-image can give reassuring confidence, 极其宝贵的资产.”
The Career 关闭t service is free for students, and all clothing items are professionally dry-cleaned, so students are "dressed to impress" the moment they walk out the door.
“The Career 关闭t is a hidden gem on campus,安吉拉·邦克说, an electro-mechanical engineering technology student. “I was able to pick the perfect outfit for the Undergraduate 研究 Fair in less than an hour. It’s reassuring to know that if I don’t have appropriate attire in my wardrobe for any business professional event, 壁橱里有.”
This academic year, the closet provided over 497 pieces of clothing to 171 students. Those numbers are expected to increase in 2023-24.
“Supply can be limited at certain points of the year with the amount of early professional events taking place,班克说。. “It's important that the Career 关闭t gets more monetary support so more items can be added and more students can utilize it.”
“感谢这份礼物的支持, we will be able to continue this worthwhile project for many years to come,雪莉·麦格雷戈补充道, 职业服务 employer engagement specialist.
Dede and her late husband 约翰 are from Hollidaysburg, 宾西法尼亚. In 2007, 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校 received a significant gift from 约翰 and Dede and 约翰's mother, Jane Patterson Kazmaier Lower. In recognition of the gift from the longtime friends of the University, the Kazmaier家族大厦 opened in 2009 as the home to the college’s Development and 校友 Relations Office.
“I believe in the importance of appropriate appearance, good manners and having an awareness of how to respectfully conduct yourself and interact in the world,卡兹梅尔说. “The Career 关闭t offers leadership and life preparation resources to guide students in the same areas. In supporting this service, it allows me to share many of my values through its ongoing mission.”
