Jorden Cunningham Quote

Your English studies will give you skills that are transferable to a vast, vast array of work. I worry that the number of individuals who can critically synthesize information and communicate well is declining. Your English degree will prepare you in unique, valued, and respected ways.

Sara Altenhoff Quote

My English degrees have been a huge asset in my career. I never thought I’d be working in tech, but a background in the humanities is a great foundation. I offer a perspective that no one else at my organization has.

Rebekah Robinson Quote

Empathy is certainly a learned skill, and nothing conditions you better for that skill than reading—getting into the head of characters and authors you'd never encounter in-person.
