I see a lot of myself in this story, Jeff. I changed directions many times in my college career (without the help of a professional) and I share this with my students at orientation. I begin with my five-year-old aspirations of becoming a ballerina, which clearly didn't happen. I think they appreciate the honesty and vulnerability of not having all the answers. I make sure that I mention how they can get involved off and on campus, not because it's fun and fulfilling, but because it's necessary. Luckily our Student Involvement staff reaffirms the importance of seeking help from our Career Center. I think many can relate to having a path that takes many detours along the way. Thanks for sharing!
