Career Services bids a farewell to one of our admirable counselors. She has touched a lot of people over the years.

Anne Lapour

Career Development Coordinator and Career Counselor

Goodbyes are not forever.
Goodbyes are not the end.
They simply mean I’ll miss you
until we meet again!

–Unknown

Anne will be leaving Career Services and starting a new life. “I am having a baby, and plan to learn everything I can about my new job as a Mom.  Then I hope to ease back into working in the area of career or student development–maybe even at OSU,” said Lapour. Anne said that she most of all valued the people, both her colleagues and students that she worked with. “I loved how everyday was different, and I could expect to learn as much from my students as I hope they learned from me.” Even though she will be in Eugene, she will always be a beaver. Anne would like to thank her colleagues and friends here at OSU, she also shared one of her favorite quotes:

I learned this, at least, by my experiment; “that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.” –Henry David Thoreau, from “Walden”

We will miss you Anne. Thank you for all your hard work and lasting memories. Best of luck in all that you do. And best wishes to you and your new family.
