Welcome…I think

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

Well…I guess I am jumping on the technological bandwagon and trying to blog.  Bear with me, because I’m still fighting the “narcissistic” nature of putting down one’s thoughts with the expectation that someone will want to read it.

The purpose of this blog is alert you to all things Career within a Wheaton College framework…and to essentially give you the option of subscribing to my old weekly e-mails.

I will try not to be too pedantic, but if you are interested in reading about employment trends…getting invited to various workshops and activities, well this is the place.

Hope you subscribe.
