Background
The Career Counseling and Placement office was organized in 1974 to assist students with career planning. The office was headed by Brother Thomas Kane. By 1992, the Career Counseling and Placement Center was headed by two co-directors and one counselor. Among the functions of the Center were to publish an Alumni Career Network Directory, provide handouts of career information, and hold frequent workshops in resume writing, interviewing skills, and job search strategies. Additionally, the center offered an on-campus recruiting program to bring employers from different industries to interview students on campus.
