Cynthia Favre has been helping Gustavus students to name their gifts and talents and find places to use them in the world since July of 1989. She can help students with resume and letter writing, using GustieJobs, Linkedin.com, and other resources on the Career Development webpage. She is the primary contact for students participating in MN Private Colleges Job and Internship Fair and MN Education Job Fair. She provides information, opportunity and support to students to gain clarity, confidence, and connections for careers and callings.
Cynthia’s Bachelor of Arts is from the University of Minnesota, Morris with a major in Sociology (a focus in the sociology of work) and her Master of Science is from Minnesota State University, Mankato in Counseling and Student Personnel with a focus in adult employment counseling. She launched her career as assistant director of Career Center at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas followed by several positions at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida including administrator of internships, career counselor, and employer relations. She eagerly returned to the liberal arts when she came to Gustavus.
Outside of work Cynthia is an avid youth sports spectator. Which works out well as she is a soccer mom (3 soccer teams this summer), a hockey mom (year around), a dance mom, and a track/field mom (2 teams).
