This event is in the past.
Join fellow students for an insightful lunch of networking and career development as the Wayne State University Alumni Association hosts Small Plates, Big Ideas 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 8th at Tierney Alumni House with Macomb County Undersheriff Elizabeth Darga, the highest-ranking woman in the department’s history.
Learn from a successful female administrator on how to excel in the male-dominated field of policing. Darga, a 1986 graduate of Wayne State's criminal justice program, started her career as a corrections officer and progressively worked her way up the chain of command. She currently serves as the undersheriff in Macomb County, where she oversees the day-to-day operations of the third largest sheriff’s office in Michigan. Darga’s responsibilities also include management of the department’s $67 million dollar budget and more than 500 employees.
Small Plates Big Ideas is a student success initiative that pairs Wayne State students with specially selected alumni for a career networking meal.
