"So What Are You Going to Do With That?" Alumni Panel
Students are used to getting asked, "So, what are you going to do with that?" We have gathered alumni with careers in a variety of fields to help you answer that question. Plus, you're sure to walk away with some sage advice!
This year, SILC will be represented by Linley Wilson, an Italian major and Patrick Heuer, a Russian major.
