1."What do I do with this degree?"
This quote is meaningful to me because sometimes people are still unsure about their future once they get their degree. Second this quote is meaningful to me because once I get my degree I'll be asking the question. I'll be asking the same question because I wouldn't know where to start my career path. Most colleges don't set you up for interviews with companies once you graduate so you're on your own without any resources.
2."Reality doesn't always match up to that traditional linear career path".
This quote is meaningful to me because people sometimes change their career path throughout life. I'm majoring to become a teacher, but then again I want to be a Juvenile Counselor. Most people don't have jobs matching their majors. Throughout life people tend to change their minds.
3. "Right about now you're probably thinking that pursuing an education that directly relates to a career, and vice versa, seems so stable and easy. Wouldn't it make more sense to follow a more direct path?"
This is meaningful to me because I always get caught up with having an education under my belt, but I'm not really happy with this decision. Second parents can influence a child to make their career decision. To follow a direct path would be easier because then you'll be satisfied with the results. The career goal seems so stable, but now alot of people are being layed off and fired so it doesn't seem secure any longer.
