It's been a busy few weeks, and that means we haven't had a chance to talk about this year's Fisher Flight program!

This year's annual program brought 12 Cardinals to Charlotte, North Carolina for two days of alumni networking, employer visits, and immersive professional development. Students had the opportunity to explore one of four career tracks, experience the energy of a major metropolitan city...and, of course, the hands-on pizza-making class, courtesy of Chef Joel Kraft from Fisher Dining!

The Fisher Flight Program is organized each year by the President's Office, the Office of Institutional Advancement, and Fisher Career Services - thanks to all for this year's adventure!

Students, alumni, and all members of the campus community are invited to share their photos with us. Send us a DM on Instagram (), and you could see your photos on our Stories - and maybe even a post or two!
