Don’t just get a degree, get skills.
In college, you are developing several sets of skills. Among them are learning professionalism, developing your written and spoken communications skills, applying logic and developing analyses, as well as learning about a field or fields in depth. In some schools, this takes over completely and can leave new graduates out in the cold, especially in a tough job market. There are countless graduates in English, communications, and business every year and a lot of them will end up looking the same on paper.
