Sometimes, you can spend two years at a college, do all the things for a degree, graduate, and still not be sure of what you want to be when you grow up. Regardless of your age. But you know what? That's okay. Because a degree doesn't necessarily mean you have all the answers, it means you have the ability to find answers when you need them and you can learn. Those are powerful skills to have. But, let's face it, we also need to figure out a career path so we can live out the dream of having the car, the house, the food, the family, the pets, and whatever else it is you desire.
A Liberal Arts Degree from a Community College is sometimes a
catch-all for students who aren’t quite sure what career they want to
pursue. For others, it’s a way to
complete general education requirements before continuing on to a four year
institution (and beyond) for more focused study. Regardless of why a Liberal Arts degree is
chosen, the path from that degree to a job and a career is sometimes a
meandering one and sometimes leads in unexpected directions. Join three alumni of FLCC as they talk about
the choices they made and the places it led and is still leading them.
