I have a BA in Journalism and English Lit. If I would have taken one more Women's Studies course, I would have been a triple major. I was really good at double dipping.
I chose to go the marketing communications route with my journalism degree as it appealed to me more than being a reporter. My internships and volunteer opportunities taught me more than my professors, but it's important to have a piece of paper...an expensive piece of paper. Now I work for a university writing about the successes of students and faculty. I write press releases, update websites, and write for marketing collateral to show donors how awesome we are.
Don't worry...I write much better for work than I do on here.
I'm looking to change my career a bit. I want to get my MS in College Student Personnel, but every time I try, something happens. Eventually I would like to get my PhD and do research, specifically on college access and success. I just don't know if that will ever happen.
