The Colgate Scene March 2001 Table of contents Real World Real World hustle and bustle outside Frank. For the past five years, the second semester has begun with a dose of reality for seniors. Real World is a weekend's worth of practical advice, career workshops and social events. Members of the Alumni Corporation Board of Directors and other alumni return to campus to share tips on interviewing skills, first-year success on the job and investing strategies.
Panels cover everything from apartment hunting to the particulars of life in various cities.
There were also discussions of a number of careers, from education to technology-related jobs. The weekend included a number of social events, beginning with a road trip to Ithaca to help the hockey team escape with a 2-2 tie against Cornell, a buffet with alumni and, finally, a formal dinner and wine tasting.
