Questions:
What is/was your college major(s)?
What is/was your college minor(s)?
FOR THE GRADUATES/WORKING FOLKS:
What are you doing now professionally?
How did your major(s)/minor(s) prepare you to do your job?
What internships did you do to get ready for your profession?
FOR THE CURRENT STUDENTS
What do you plan to do with your major?
What internships have you pursued to better prepare yourself for the working world?

Major: Social Work
Minor: Thinking about Psychology, but not entirely sure yet.
First, I plan to get my MSW/JD. I would love to be a Youth Advocate or a Juvenile Defense Attorney. I just feel like children get so overlooked and underrepresented in the legal system. IMO, there wouldn't be so many in detention centers, etc, if they had somebody who cared( and was able to do something legally for them) by their sides when facing the legal system.
I haven't done any internships yet(it took me a minute to find what I was passionate about and forget about the financial aspect of it), but I have applied for some and hopefully I get good news soon.
