Alumni/Parents/Friends of Tulane
We are so delighted that you can join us. It has been quite a while since we held a networking event in collaboration to WAVE Weekend and we are thrilled that you will give time to speak to students. You may or may not know we’ve held these networking events all over the country and are glad to reconnect with Tulanians coming home to New Orleans. At this event you will have an opportunity to network with current students who are seeking career guidance or you may even find your next intern of new hire.
