Ambassadors

Mission

They are expected to bring diverse perspectives, help foster relationships with current and prospective students, aid in departmental efforts to reach out to the community including schools in their communities, with community advisory board, community organizations and assist with high-profile campus visits. They have the opportunity to work closely with C&J leadership and apply their communication and journalism professional skills in applied settings.
