Suzanne Fodor, Associate Director, Graduate Career Services:
Sometimes when we think of a dream career, we think of this kind of nebulous, "Oh, this is what I would like." But it's lovely to see that synergy between somebody defining the dream and then beginning to define action steps, alums they can connect with that bring them closer to that.
