Meet the Netwick
Over True Blue Weekend, the College launched a new initiative - the Netwick: a career-centered community that’s at the heart of the Hartwick experience. Below, Megan Gray, assistant vice president of career development & network engagement, explains what the Netwick offers students, parents, alumni and professionals.
