As another Social Welf<strong>are</strong> student liaison, Khiet Ho Jenkins has had a great deal <strong>of</strong> experience with <br />
C<strong>are</strong>er Services. Her involvement with the center, she says, was more in development, and in working <br />
alongside the C<strong>are</strong>er Services team and other students to address student needs. <br />
“I think the C<strong>are</strong>er Center is an invaluable resource for most students. The workshops we were able to <br />
bring were helpful for the student body as a whole. The Women in the Workplace Leadership workshop <br />
was empowering and affirming, and it provided a much-‐needed discussion space regarding gender and <br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essional development. <br />

Ezra recently discovered C<strong>are</strong>er Services when he visited the <strong>of</strong>fice for help with salary negotiation. <br />
“C<strong>are</strong>er Services is a helpful, <strong>of</strong>ten underutilized resource that is available to all <strong>Luskin</strong> students.” <br />

“<strong>Luskin</strong> C<strong>are</strong>er Services has created opportunities for me to stay connected and engaged in the <strong>Luskin</strong> <br />
community. The staff has been particularly receptive and helpful in executing events that <strong>are</strong> <strong>of</strong> interest <br />
to students and alumni alike, including the “Women’s Leadership in the Workplace” brown bag that I <br />
helped plan in Spring Quarter <strong>of</strong> 2013. I look forward to continuing to take advantage <strong>of</strong> these <br />
opportunities to develop as a pr<strong>of</strong>essional and learn from students and fellow alumni through the <strong>Luskin</strong> <br />
C<strong>are</strong>er Services.” <br />

“It’s been my honor to partake in the <strong>Luskin</strong> C<strong>are</strong>er Services; it’s a privilege to mingle with experienced <br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essionals and the bright students developing their skills. For me, part <strong>of</strong> being a competent <br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essional involves sharing with <strong>others</strong> – not just health science research findings through traditional <br />
publications, but working with students to help them find their pr<strong>of</strong>essional path based on their <br />
interests and unique personalities. I see <strong>Luskin</strong> C<strong>are</strong>er Services as an excellent resource for building <br />
connections, <strong>of</strong>fering guidance, and facilitating the personal, academic and pr<strong>of</strong>essional advancement <br />
for these noble Bruins. I look forward to further participating in the development <strong>of</strong> this worthy <br />
network.”
