Welcome back, students! We’re hoping you had a chance to rest ahead of spring trimester beginning today. Although we’re all working and studying in new ways, please know the Office of Career & Student Development is here to support you during this time. In addition to some of the resources in this newsletter regarding mental and physical well-being, here are some resources for your professional development:

Communication from OCSD

We’ll continue to send our newsletters on Mondays and Thursdays. You may want to save this particular edition because of the resources listed, but please continue to read the newsletters carefully as we will be adding information and resources that you might have otherwise heard about from being in the law school during the day.

Scheduling Remote Appointments

During this time, please schedule a career counseling appointment on Symplicity. For student life appointments, please email Ms. Dooley at sdooley3@elon.edu. When you schedule an appointment, please indicate whether you prefer phone or video conferencing.

Resume & Cover Letter Review

Students and graduates may continue use the electronic Resume & Cover Letter Drop Box for resume and/or cover letter review: tiny.cc/resumecoverletterdropbox

Symplicity

If you need assistance with Symplicity, please contact Ms. Lail at mlail@elon.edu.

Online Resources

The Career Resources Library on Symplicity is updated weekly with helpful articles and links regarding the job search process, networking, interviewing, and more. Be sure to check it out if you have questions you might otherwise ask during drop-in hours. If you still can’t find the answer to your question, please reach out to our office for help.

Stay well and please let us know how we can support you!

Sincerely,

Dean Duncan

We hope you have all had a happy and healthy spring break. It is now time for us to look to the future and begin the last trimester of this academic year strong!

There is so much happening in our current climate, specifically regarding COVID-19 and the restrictions placed on us in order to keep ourselves and each other safe. Although we will be working and studying remotely for the foreseeable future, we want to remind you that we are still a community, and we are here for you! 

We assure you that Faculty and Staff are working diligently to provide the same quality of education as we transition to remote learning. Although we are now remote, please know that Faculty and Staff are still available to assist you via phone, video, and email. We encourage you to review your syllabi so you will know how to best contact your professors if you have questions.  Continue to monitor your emails daily for updates.

Additionally, we want to remind you that a smooth transition to remote education requires all of us to do our part. If you are having trouble with things like TWEN, Moodle, WebEx, please contact Kolton Wade kwade5@elon.edu. For issues with hardware, please reach out to Tony Winstead at awinstead2@elon.edu. 

Although we are not physically together, your SBA will continue to support you. Please continue to reach out to your SBA Exec Board and Representatives. As always “Voice Your Concerns” by clicking the link here. We monitor the form daily, so continue to utilize the link as you need it.
