-: I loved my time at UVA
I was, I guess, a little bit of
an outlier in being out of state.
And so, just the entire experience was a fun one.
I loved, like I've come out with such good friends.
Loved the campus.
I mean I just feel the grounds and the entire experience
was a really, really positive one.
I will say, and this is not UVA's fault by any means,
but I did not graduate with this
clear trajectory, career wise.
And that was just my own choosing.
I was a media studies major.
I loved my classes.
I was interested,
but I just had not identified a clear path.
And I think many of my friends graduating
from the COM school or engineering,
and many of my friends in media studies
knew exactly where they were going,
what they wanted to do post grad.
And I was just sort of taking my time,
but I also think UVA prepared us really nicely.
And the media studies program prepared us really nicely
with key introductions, trips.
We did a number of New York City sort of field trips
or extended trips as program,
to see what opportunities were available.
So, I think in terms of career preparedness,
it was just sort of the overall liberal arts education,
wonderful experience, and introduction
into big environments probably,
that I really took away from UVA.
I think almost a more holistic or well-rounded experience,
rather than one that was putting me
only on this single track.
