>> So I would say do things a little bit different than what I did.
I never visited my career office, and I wish I had.
I would say get all of that help as soon as you can, but if you're interested in writing
or communications, I think when people think of writing,
they think of publishing a novel and being an author.
And there's different ways to take your writing in, in a way that you can still be effective
in the world and give back to the world.
And if you just follow that passion, whether it be straight to a graduate program or into a job
where you can start to write a little bit and just follow that, I think that's,
that's a way that you can really get into this field.
And it's a field where you might, you might not necessarily need a degree
in journalism or communications.
I know a lot of colleagues who just kind of fell into it and are doing fabulous work.
But a graduate degree or an undergraduate degree do help, but it's not necessary.
You just need to be a good writer, a good synthesizer of ideas.
