Make A Difference: Student and Community Mixer
UPEI’s newest networking opportunity is here! The Experiential Education Department is thrilled to introduce Monthly Mixers to this year’s programming.
Each month features a unique focus or theme, giving you a clear idea of who you’ll meet. For September, we’re kicking things off with “Make A Difference: Student & Community Mixer,” which is all about connecting you with local organizations looking for student volunteers and community-minded changemakers.
We welcome students from all programs to join us! Mixers are designed to help you:
