Douglass is a launchpad for student success. Through an interdisciplinary curriculum, students prepare to be leaders in every space where decisions are made—including the workplace. At Networking Night, Douglass students met with reps from major companies such as Bristol Myers Squibb, PSEG, Verizon, L’Oréal, AT&T, and many more. They learned about each industry, received insights into the working world, and connected with future employers.
This past month, Douglass students traveled to New York City for a day out to Broadway. The group went to see Suffs, a musical that chronicles the women’s suffrage movement in the early twentieth century leading up to the ratification of the 19th Amendment.
