Changes at Jewell



As you have noticed William Jewell has (and still is) undergoing some serious changes. With the switch to NCAA, renovations to Curry Library, and the addition of the Pryor Learning Commons Jewell has seen vast alterations not only to the campus but also the notoriety of our establishment. These changes however will not be the last to William Jewell. At the end of this academic year the head of Career Services, Judy Rychlewski, will be retiring. Judy has served in the Career Service Office for thirty-seven years, and has helped countless students and alumni reach their goals and find jobs that they enjoy. Judy has decided to retire to spend more time with her family, and travel with her husband Walt. In addition to Judy’s retirement is an office makeover. Career Services will change over the summer in to the Office of Career Development and Internships. We will be placing a much larger focus on helping current students find internships within their field during their time here at Jewell. Our hope is that by stressing involvement within your area of academic interest Jewell alumni will have more opportunities and have an easier time entering the workforce after graduation. Look for next week’s blog for upcoming internship and job opportunities.
