My story, their words
"Should I be studying something more important — by stereotypical college standards — than Communications? Would I be able to get a job with that degree? With those older than me struggling to get jobs and internships, was trying to go into journalism a mistake?"
After committing myself to pursue journalism as a career, I began dealing with a specific set of anxieties.
​
Even after my parents gave me their blessing to pursue this career, I constantly wondered if I should turn back, and pursue a degree that would give me a more conventional, easily-navigable career path. And admittedly, though it may sound egotistical, I wondered if I was too smart to be writing about sports for the rest of my life.
​
For the sake of this project, I decided to work through some of those anxieties, which brought me to an interview with Liz and Jack.
