Young alumni guide soon-to-be alumni

With campus tours cancelled and opportunities to discuss options in person completely off the table this year, the chance for high school students to consider their next steps is challenging. However, Jillian Abramsky ’18 took time over her winter break from Queens University to organize seven different information sessions for those preparing to graduate from Tanenbaumchat this year. In early January, more than 6o members of the class of 2018 who between them attend 17 different schools, participated in virtual panels with our Grade 12s to discuss higher education tracks in arts & science, engineering, creative arts, general science, kinesiology, health science, education, business and humanities. “When I was in Grade 12, I looked to students in years above to help shed light on their experiences and answer any question I had,” said Jillian. “I was lucky to have those familiar faces during my decision-making process and the alumni of 2018 wanted to be those people to the class of 2021.”
