“The Mentorship Mini-Series gave me the opportunity to explore my interests in engineering as well as connect with the other junior girls considering a career in engineering.”

"Going into this experience, I had never really considered engineering as a career for me, but I want to keep an open mind. Christina Canino Troksa '14 and the other alumnae allowed me to realize how valuable women in engineering are and how my academic strengths fi t into this career. After this mentorship, I have decided I want to be an engineering major in college. I feel incredibly blessed to have been off ered this opportunity in high school.”

Students Visit Cadaver Lab as Part of Alumni Mentoring Mini-Series

On April 5, 2021, a group of eight Regis Jesuit students learned fi rst-hand what it is like to be a physician assistant as part of our RJ Connect: Alumni Mentoring Mini-Series. Led by Great Raiders Marielle Renehan '13 and Drew Miller '13, and chaperoned by RJ science teacher, Kevin Russell, the group took part in the Cadaver Outreach Program at Red Rocks Community College, visiting a cadaver lab and learning more about human anatomy. Designed to help current high schoolers learn more about this career path, the group met on four occasions to discuss various topics including paths to becoming a physician assistant, the education and experience needed for this fi eld, diff erent PA specialties and how to best prepare oneself during high school and college.
