Peter Pan Leaves WKU

I am the Peter Pan of college. I never want to grow up and leave. I love my classes, the people, the events, and everything else Western has to offer. However, this December I will be forced to ‘walk the plank’ (aka graduation line). Since this date is inevitable, certain plans must be made for the post-academic, demanding, crazy college life.

Some potential options are: grad school, law school, full-time employment, (several) part-time jobs, retail jobs, become a bum, travel through Europe (and maybe never come back), or join the Peace Corps or AmeriCorps.

A way to sort out your future career goals is to speak to your Career Counselor at Career Services Center. Your career counselor is kind of like your academic advisor. Except they help you find jobs and narrow down a career choice. They can also help with picking a major that is right for you.

If you are someone like me, and has no idea of what type of career you want, then set up an appointment with a Career Counselor today. Because I don’t think Tinker Bell has any fairy dust to help.
