On March 20th, the Center for Career and Professional Development had together with the International Students Association organized an event for international students.
The event took place during community hour in the eastern end of the student dining hall and was called, "Life After John Jay".
The focus of the event was to inform the international students at John Jay of their various options as they graduate as well as introduce them to some of the key people that work at John Jay and are here to help them.
We had a panel of experts which consisted of Laurie Woog, an immigration attorney; Ruth Kamona, University Director and CUNY International Student and Scholar Services; Sandrine Dikambi, International Student Manager and Elaine Thompson, International Student Specialist. These amazing women provided some valuable advice about various visa options as well as their own personal experiences navigating the U.S. immigration system.
About 30 international students attended and had an opportunity in the end to ask questions to the panel as well as enjoy some refreshments and mingle with one another. The event was a great success and the first of many for the International Student Association.
