HST Alumni/Student Roundtables
The HST Alumni Association and the HST Joint Student Council are host to several Alumni/Student Roundtables during the academic year.
A roundtable will consist of an HST alumnus/a meeting with a maximum of 10 students over an informal breakfast, lunch or dinner. There is a limit of 10 students per roundtable in hopes to increase alumni/student interaction. The Alumni/Student Roundtables are sponsored by a generous alumnus who hopes to increase participation among both alumni and students.
HST Headquarters Office staff will arrange for a location, food and will also take care of sending an e-mail invitation to the students, as well as choosing the 10 students who will be able to attend.
If you are interested in hosting a roundtable, please send an e-mail to HST Alumni Association Staff. Please let us know when you would like to do this and include a title and a very short description of what you would like to discuss. We'll do everything else!
