Volunteers Provide Guidance to Students
Thank you for your interest in volunteering to support Lafayette College students! Your time and talents are valuable tools that help to give our students a competitive advantage. See below for information about how you can help students.
*ATTENTION ALUMNI*: Please join us for a special opportunity to share your expertise and professional passions with Lafayette students through our GatewayLink virtual networking community.
Volunteer Opportunities for Alumni, Parents, & Families:
- Host an Externship: Each January more than 300 Lafayette sophomores, juniors, and seniors participate in shadowing experiences through the Externship program. These two-to-five day, unpaid opportunities provide students with a glimpse of the host’s day-to-day work, career field, and industry. Learn more here.
- Hire a ‘Pard: Support Lafayette students by posting jobs or internships. Providing a summer internship experience or connect students with existing internships at your place of employment provides a balance between the learning objectives of the student and the specific work an organization needs completed.

- Employer Liaison: Serve as an organizational contact to support a recruiting relationship between your employer and Lafayette, and/or provide current information regarding job postings, career fairs and more.
- Information Sessions: Share information with students highlighting your organization or industry on campus.
