April 17, 2009
Twenty-three professionals Thursday took time out of their busy week to talk to GSSM's junior class about their career and college choices for the Career Day 2009 program.
With participants' careers varying from engineer to psychology professor, the class' 70 students were able to freely ask questions in the panel-format sessions.
The panelists shared their college experiences, as well as gave insight to the trends they've noticed within their industries.We'd like to thank our panelists, who graciously took the time to inspire our students as they prepare for their senior year of high school.
