The CU Cities Conference 2018 convened graduate students and diverse professionals, from recent graduates to seasoned pros, from across industries, to explore compelling ideas about faith and its relevance to every facet of our lives.

Katie Lentz, CU New York young professional: “The most impactful thing about this conference was the coming together of a network of people striving towards the same goal. It was so encouraging to gather with Christians from this city and other cities with the same Christ-centered personal mission in the workplace.”

Networking
Participants experienced dynamic worship, fervent prayer, and opportunities to connect and network. Professionals and graduate students seperated into 12 industry groups during lunch and at the end to discuss how the conference teaching applied to their specific vocations.

We hope that these groups will be the start of much larger networks, especially in media, tech, and finance, developing in the coming months.

Connecting 

Several students from Dartmouth joined the conference, enough for the participants to joyfully call this conference an informal young alumni reunion. Graduate students as well as both new and seasoned professionals enjoyed connecting with fellow Christians living in New York City.
