On November 6th, I attended the professional and graduate fair designated for people focusing on the arts and sciences. I went with my friend Jenna. We are both majoring in public health and want to move forward after our undergraduate education to maybe get a master’s degree in public health as well. I wore a dress with a cardigan to the Ohio Union Performance Hall expecting everyone else to be dressed the same. However, I was clearly overdressed but looking at it in a positive light, I made an impression. We stayed for only about thirty minutes since we only stopped at a couple of tables to speak with the experienced graduate representatives.
At the public health table, I asked a few questions. I learned how to get more involved on campus to give me a head start on my career and hopefully for graduate school. I got a free drawstring bag that was made by the college of public health. I also stopped at the table for medical school and learned about some of the students’ experiences. This graduate fair was recommended to me by my advisor. She knew it would help me get a better idea of what my future might look like and what paths I could take.
