REMEMBER WHEN

Lakeland College had a football team and a cheer squad? The year was 1972. The coach was Joe Sullivan. The captain was Keith Brower. The team? A group of rookies that somehow got it together and became difficult to beat by the end of the season.

Ladder UP! w i th L akel an d

Lakeland students and alumni are invited to connect with community members sharing their unique career experience through Ladder UP!, a new speaker series from Lakeland College. We hosted our first session digitally on Jan. 25, featuring Jordyn Prior, a Lakeland alumna who is now the marketing and community engagement manager for Cornerstone Co-op.

An excerpt from Jordyn’s session: If you feel bored or you’re not excited to wake up in the morning and go to that job, that is a sign that you should probably change your career path or you should look for something else […] When you’re changing career paths, it’s going to be super scary to get outside your comfort zone but your gut will know. Your gut always knows. -Jordyn Prior, Class of 2011 University Transfer Catch the rest of Jordyn’s session at youtube.com/lakelandcollegecanada and watch our website and social media for our next Ladder UP! session!
