I have a triple major (Journalism, History and English) and a minor (Photography). I also have a double MA (British History and Communications) AND am certified to teach 7-12 grade.
What do I do? I'm the Senior News Editor (which is funny, because I am the only news editor) at a large, member-driven technical organization. I write news stories for our Web site, contribute (on average) 5-6 pages of text/pictures a month in our 160-page membership journal (with by-line!), take pictures of products we sell on the Web site, write and distribute a weekly e-mail newsletter that goes out to about 70,000 people, as well as write a script (edited from the newsletter) and voice a weekly news show that members can either download from our Web site, phone in to receive, or listen to it on certain kinds of radios - and more!
In other words, yes I use my degrees and I have a blast doing it. I can't believe I get paid to play with words all day long!!!
