Hobart and William Smith Colleges

27 November 2007 Classes of 1982 host Career Panel in NYC

Seven members of the Hobart and William Smith Colleges classes of 1982 will speak at a Career Panel, beginning at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 9 at the Lehman Brothers office, 745 Seventh Ave., in Manhattan.

The program is being planned so that a group of 1982 alumni and alumnae can talk about their career journey 25 years later: starts, stops, changes, successes and failures.

Hosted by Mark Shapiro, a managing director in the global restructuring group at Lehman Brothers, speakers are expected to include:
Sharon Gitelle, membership and audience retention manager at Forbes, Inc.;
Henry Jackson, deputy commissioner in New York City's Office of Emergency Management;
Holman Jenkins, a writer and senior editor at The Wall Street Journal;
Joseph Kyrillos, a New Jersey state senator;
Andrew Nelson, an attorney and partner at Sidney Austin LLP; and
Mallory Weil, director of direct marketing at Coach Leatherware Co.

Students are invited to sign up by e-mailing cso@hws.edu by Friday, Dec. 7.
