During Part 1 of their talk, these esteemed alumni talk about their day-to-day lives in their respective lines of work, the different ways to build a professional network and how imperative it is for building a career in communications media, and special moments and memorable classes during their time as students, reflecting on how their time at Fitchburg State impacted their lives and careers and think about what they could have done differently if they were to do it all again.
