Career liaisons: a joint venture between academic and student affairs

Article Abstract:

Colorado State University has developed a career liaison program which is a combination of the centralized and decentralized career center approaches currently practised by other universities. The College Career Liaison program involves graduates of master's degree in counseling with graduate or undergraduate degrees from their colleges. The career liaisons, therefore, act as credible link between the university's career center and their respective colleges.
