Name: Mary Kemp
Major: Environmental Sciences, Policy & Management;
emphasis in Conservation Resource
Management
Minor: Sustainability Studies
Year: Sophomore
Summer Plans: This summer I will be an assistant on a
research project on the St. Paul Campus examining
urban forestry in the metro area.
acquainted with many of the St. Paul Campus Career
Center staff, encouraging me to visit the SPCCC and
utilize their vast resources. I was able to take a leadership
role in planning an employer career panel and learned
valuable tips from potential employers in my field. I have
also learned a lot from Career Leader meetings as we
covered a variety of topics, such as how to write cover
letters, how to follow up after an interview and how to utilize your personal strengths in an interview and in the workplace. In addition, I was able to both attend and work at the Environmental Career Fair this spring where I identified myself as a Career Leader when meeting with employers.
