Leaving the class of 2006, to enter the class of 2010; I had the dream of becoming a well-known journalist, in a well known organization, publication, or highly read blog. However, the limitations of those invisible lines that the separation of states soon became apparent. Philadelphia and New York City became more of a dream and less of a reality of my future. I’m sure I’m not the only one who asks – where am I going? Is my adviser just telling me to take classes that are required because they inform me on what I’m doing – will the actually get me job I want. How far should I go – should I chase my master’s degree down, what minor will match with a journalism major? Is there even a Doctorate in Journalism is it worth spending all that time in college? Will I hit a strike of luck and become syndicated for something simple? Will I be a starving artist so to speak? More than anything where do I go? Is this a journey that has no clear leader to pave the way? As a student who has pondered these question over the past 4 years. I hope not only to be wondering soul, but a resource for my colleagues, and future college students who feel lost in the confusing land of words and locations.
Hopefully, this blog will have less of us looking like this when we graduate.
