Erin Moore

Hear from a student

About my sophomore year, when I was kind of going through a life crisis, I felt like everyone else knew what they wanted to do, and I was the only one who really didn't. I was getting ready to take the exam to get into a nursing program because I thought that I was supposed to be a nurse, but I really didn't know. I remember calling up Career Services and they were like, ‘What's going on?’ And I kind of explained to them the situation and they got me in for an appointment the very next day. And I remember meeting with somebody. I don't think I could ask for anybody better.
