J-Link
Students and alumni are encouraged to utilize J-Link online alumni directory for J-school alumni. J-Link allows users to search by class year, geographic region and other means to locate alumni. Most listings have business contact information, including email, which is usually the best way to contact alumni. A link to J-Link is found on the J-School website.


JAFA fall and spring break networking trips
Each fall and spring break, the J-school takes 10 to 12 students to a major U.S. city for a unique networking experience. Students meet individually with eight to 12 alumni working in their chosen fields over a two-day period, and are exposed to the school’s vast network at an alumni and friends reception. The trip gives students an opportunity to learn from alumni and make connections in the field that can help them secure internships and jobs in the future.
