Governors State University will be hosting its annual Putt and Pitch Social Hour on Thursday, March 6, 2025, from 3 to 4:30 p.m. in the Hall of Governors. The event, which is being sponsored by the GSU Alumni Association and Career Services, offers students, alumni, and professionals a unique opportunity to network, practice their elevator pitches, and receive career guidance—all while enjoying a game of mini-golf.

This interactive event is designed to help participants improve their professional communication skills in an informal and engaging atmosphere. Participants will be able to get feedback on their resumes and professional profiles, learn effective networking strategies, and engage with GovState leaders and alumni who can provide career guidance and mentorship.

The Putt and Pitch Social Hour is complimentary but requires registration. Guests may register on the GSU event website. All students, alumni, faculty, business guests, and community members are welcome and urged to join, making it an excellent opportunity to expand professional networks. Along with networking and mini-golf, attendees will have light refreshments, and two will receive $25 gift cards as part of a prize drawing.

For registration or more information, see the GSU Alumni Association website or call Career Services.
