The Professional Writing program is so wonderful because it feels like a little bubble of inclusivity. Our artistic license and wingspan is constantly supported by every one of the faculty members, and they never fail to make you aware of that. I love that we are treated both as artists and technicians in our writing.
One of the classes with the most rewarding projects was the Publishing in the 21st Century course. I actually got to publish an anthology of Champlain student poetry. We did almost everything ourselves, from choosing the poems and photographs for inclusion to designing and sending off the files to the printer to coordinating where we would sell the publication. This was such a real-world experience that translated directly to my major and what I wanted to pursue in my career, which is incredible.
I actually worked with the Career Collaborative as a Financial Peer Coach. This position included holding office hours, when we gave students one-on-one appointments to review their credit reports, held workshops on personal finance, and helped students navigate their InSight milestones. I gained a ton of relevant life skills, like getting well trained in many aspects of personal finance, especially understanding credit.
