Attending the event "You Can do Anything with an English Major!" (REVISED)


Last Tuesday, May first, I attended an event at LaGuardia Community College. The event was based on how English major can help you in your future career. Different kinds of people gave a speech. Among them where people that made it into Business and Law with an English major degree.
First of all they argued that pursuing a degree in English will help you learn how to write efficiency. Very important if you want to make it in a career that has a lot of paperwork. You also learn how to research, analyze and come to a conclusion on your own. It helps you develop a personal voice and learn how to give a proper presentation.
Someone said in the event that ‘’ When you learn English you learn how to learn’’. If you consider that we are living in a society that everything is changing so rapidly it is essential that we know how to keep learning in order to adopt ourselves.
I have to say it was a very interesting event and really enjoyed it.
