Sophomore Vocation Dinner

The Hellenic College sophomore class was invited to dinner and a talk by the Office of Vocation & Ministry for the annual Sophomore Dinner on Thursday, February 7, 2013. HCHC Director of Institutional Advancement Fr. Jim Katinas teamed up with his daughter Catherine, a Hellenic College senior, to give a ‘down to earth’ career services presentation based in large part on the research and methodology of career expert Richard N. Bolles in his book What Color is Your Parachute?  Fr. Jim tied in personal examples of how he initially used this excellent resource to discern a career in financial consulting, and his presentation stimulated a variety of questions and discussion. Catherine shared her experience interning for a renowned Boston-based laboratory, and how this guided her decision to pursue graduate studies after college. After an evening of intellectual nourishment and a gourmet buffet, the Sophomore’s were serenaded by the soulful acoustic melodies of local musician Annalise Emerick.
