University of Connecticut School of Business alums Rob Amenta ’07, Ben Duell ’07 and Tim Kelley ’08 MBA from the UConn New York City Alumni Chapter had a vision of how they could give back to their alma mater. Together with a team of talented young alumni and Jim Lowe, Executive Director of the School of Business Career Center, they developed a new mentor program around the idea that young alumni would be able to share their experiences and expertise with the students to help direct them into a more focused study and career plan.

The group held their first event on Thursday, February 17th when alumni were paired with undergraduates at a meet and greet dinner in the School’s Board Room. The School is extremely grateful for the time and talent that these young alumni bring to this program.
