Alumni Career Panel 2011 Follows Passion

Facilitated by Tim Bulson (masters in Health Communications '09 and president of the CLAS Alumni Chapter), five panelists discussed the paths their educations and careers had taken for an audience of students (and the video camera). In each case, their educational roads had been varied and their careers sometimes unforeseen, but the value of their liberal arts education was clear. The panelists were:  Heather Allegrina-Bowe: '95, BA in Philosophy (Business Operations Manager for Travel leaders Corporate) Michael Messner, '95 & '00; MSE, BS in Biology (Dir. of Student Academic Success Center at GVSU), Lindsay Patton-Carson; BS in Journalism, minor in Spanish (Managing Editor at Revue Magazine), Meahgan Pear '07; BA in Writing, minor in Ad/PR (Dir. of Marketing & Communications for Girl Scouts of Michigan Shore to Shore) , Patrick Johnson, Jr. '09, BS in Liberal Studies (Branch Manager for United Federal Credit Union) Sponsored by Career Services, the CLAS Alumni Chapter and the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences.
