#ScrippsSummerChallenge Week 4: Write a hand written letter to a past mentor or professor

By Mira Kuhar

Week four of the Scripps Summer Challenge yielded a great turn out, as many people were eager to write a hand written note to a past mentor or professor.

Some sent notes to friends who have graduated. Jess Carnprobst noted she was sending post cards to a few special mentors, but she didn’t want to ruin the surprise.

We later found out that it was recent grad and former executive vice president, Theresa Ianni!

And of course, thank you notes are a great way of expressing yourself and showing off your personal branding accessories. Megan Newton showed us her new mint green thank you notes, a color she always uses to represent herself.
