While the final two years of college is an appropriate time to have mentors when applying to jobs, finalizing minors, and participating in other programs, we found that it may also be helpful for first year students to have alumni mentors because many are curious to find a career path to pursue and have ambitious career goals that they need to prepare for early on. This alumni directory would be online, and willing undergraduate business alumni can add their bios and LinkedIn to the directory. Students would be able to look through the directory and filter alumni by tags to find someone in a role, career path, or company that they’d be interested in learning more about. The first-year students could then schedule a coffee chat with an alum of their choosing, and the alum could share information about their career path, helpful classes and faculty members, helpful programs, their experiences working in certain fields and companies, etc.</span></span></span></big></span>

With the help of a Fordham First Look Video Gallery, Fordham can provide videos narrated or contributed to by students, alumni, industry professionals, and professors which explain different industries and/or their respective roles. Using YouTube or another easily accessible video creation platform, Fordham will be able to streamline and amalgamate a breadth of knowledge and expertise for underclassmen to take advantage of. Internship recruitment has also been cited as a particular stressor for both first-year and sophomore students. So, the video gallery can help shed more light on what certain industries are really about and what many jobs actually entail. As the business sector in general, and finance sector in specific, can seem endless in its subsection, underclassmen students can feel overwhelmed and underprepared. The Fordham First Look Video Gallery’s purpose is to address this.  </span></span></span></big></span>

Fordham should gather alumni from all industries imaginable for a day or a weekend of networking and genuine conversation. Imagine this as a different homecoming, a call for a specific group of professionals who can also entertain stimulating talks with fellow alumni in the same industry. We firmly believe in the impact that these kinds of interactions can have on a student’s academic and professional journey. Being able to speak freely to several professionals who have been in the field for less or more years would considerably help a student in crafting the best version of themselves. This would take out all the formality and fear that we always find in the average career-related events.</span></span></span></big></span>

Additionally, many former freshmen talked about their struggles  when they were adjusting to campus life, as it was their first time being truly independent from their families and away from their hometowns. Our solution for increasing diversity and inclusion and helping those whose diets are incompatible with campus dining is to hold an annual cultural food festival on campus. This festival will include tabling events held by both students and local restaurants. Doing so would increase cultural representation and inclusivity, promote local small businesses, and promote community across campus overall.</span></span></span></big></span>

From moving into dorms, leaving family, and making new friends, adjusting to college life isn't always easy for all. To tackle this specific problem, many college campuses, if not all, have new-student orientations at the beginning of the fall semester. These orientations vary between each campus, but most go over the importance of academics, time-management, and "putting yourself out there". At Fordham, new-student orientation lasts around 2-3 days, to which is not a lot of time given to freshmen to ease into the pace of college. Ideally, if new-student orientation at Fordham could be extended to 5 days, it would be very beneficial for over-whelmed freshmen and would allow them to take in what's expected at these institutions and to better assimilate into the campus community.</span></span></span></big></span>
