Summer Open House – Alan Mueller

Guilford College Summer Open House – June 2012

Alan Mueller, Director of Career Services (GET A LIFE: why the liberal arts matter more than ever in the working world)

Watch Alan Mueller, Director of Career Services at Guilford, talk with visiting prospective students and their families during our Summer Open House program about the value of a liberal arts education in today’s professional world.  In an ever-changing economy, Guilford students have seen the benefits of having a strong foundation in writing and critical thinking, two focal points of the Guilford curriculum, as well as the importance of internships, study abroad, undergraduate research, and service work..  Our graduates are standing out among their peers, as evidenced by our 75% medical school acceptance rate (national average of 47%) and nearly 70% job placement rate within one year for the class of 2011 (national average of 55%).
