OUR OFFICE
Welcome to the Piper Center! Our staff are available to meet with students throughout the year to assist with their vocational discernment and career search needs. We are prepared to assist students with a range of activities, including exploring majors, pursuing internships and jobs, conducting volunteer service, applying to graduate school, scholarships and fellowships, starting their own business, and much more.
PEER ADVISORS
Peer Advisors play an integral role in orienting students to the Piper Center’s vast resources. They train students on Ole Career Central, the Piper Center’s online career management tool; advise on choosing a major; assist students with resumes and cover letters; help them navigate searches for job, internship, and volunteer opportunities; and work with them on identifying electronic and print resources for all of their vocational and career needs.
