“I began as an online student and finished on campus my last year. Soon after graduation I accepted a position at the Department of Human Services in Union County, in the Aging and People with Disabilities (APD) division. I have since accepted the Executive Director position at Shelter from the Storm, Union County’s domestic violence shelter. Finishing my Anth/Soc degree and courses on campus proved to be helpful in making contacts, working with faculty, and developing a professional network. The transition from school to work can be stressful, but my degree prepared me to be effective in social work.”
