Toward the end of my undergraduate career and might I add, relatively tardy compared to most people, I began seriously researching graduate programs.
I always knew I'd return to grad school, to expand theoretical outlook on life. I couldn't wait to dive into the case studies and best practices of my predecessors and read hundreds of pages of analyses that may or more likely, may not, relate to the extremely digitized and hyper-virtual world that we live in today.
I digress...
I've known about Georgetown's PR/CC Master's Program for a couple of years now, but it was only recently that I made the definitive decision to attend. Perhaps, I should slow down, I'm not actually enrolled, nor have I even applied; but something about this program illuminated the marrow in my brittle and bruised academic bones.
For the first time since kindergarten, I was truly excited about school. Not excited about the first day and inevitable summer gossip, or the updated catered lunch to match the renovated cafeteria. This excitement extended beyond the curiosity of college life and roommates and courses where I can finally call my professor by their first name and curse without judgment.
For the first time, in a long time, I was excited to learn. I graduated from an intensely unpredictable college career with only a single shred of certainty. I was born to communicate. I am a people person, I like to write and I love to talk. My final semester taught me that I am public relations and in order for me to make it in this world, that's what I need to be doing.
Georgetown SCS PR/CC, through application and not theoretical infatuation is where I intend to start.
