Main Point of Class

Over the course of two years, the Sophomore-Junior seminar will introduce students to various professions. Each profession will be presented by an experienced professional who has demonstrated success and integrity in that field. He will speak to students about his daily work, the challenges it presents, how he handles these challenges, and the lessons he has learned during his career.  He will also reflect on his own professional career search and discuss what high schools students interested in his field can do now to learn more about the profession.  (See attached "Guidelines for Speakers" for more information.)
