Jan Slotten & Sophia Lentine

Jan Slotten retired in 2019 after a 37+-year career with Farmers (Foremost) Insurance Company, where she served as a project manager, copywriter, operations manager, and more. Jan earned her Masters in Management at Aquinas while working full time.  In retirement, Jan enjoys volunteering, taking OLLI classes, travel, reading, and spending time with family and friends. 

Sophia Lentine is a junior at Aquinas College and is expected to graduate in December. She is majoring in English writing with a minor in studio art and hopes to start a career in communications and marketing. On campus, Sophia works for the Writing Center as a consultant/communications specialist as well as a student leader and peer mentor for TRIO SSS. She is also the vice president of the Writer's Guild and the English Honor Society. Outside of college life, Sophia enjoys reading, going skiing, and spending time with the people she loves!

As part of an Aquinas College class on preparing for life after college, students were paired with mentors from the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) across the street from the College. The course capstone project was a Generation Swap podcast interview exploring how generational differences can be a source of strength and growth.
