I really enjoyed having Michelle talk about career wellness, as it is something my classmates and I are thinking of and worrying about as our time here at Lawrence is coming to an end. Michelle talked about how a career doesn’t necessarily mean a job and I found that to be very interesting as I always thought of my career as whatever job I end up having. She also focused on the concept of transitioning and the ways to make any transitioning easier than we make it. She mentioned the different tools that one can use to adapt faster and feel comfortable in a new place, doing something new.
She also talked about the importance of the Liberal Arts education and what advantages it has over other colleges. One of my favorite things about having Michelle on Monday was the activity we did. She asked us to pair up and answer some questions that she has prepared for us. Her questions made me think and evaluate my values, goals, and skills. She also asked us to think of and share with our partners what a good career looks like for each one of us. That was a hard question to answer just because I didn’t know exactly what a good career means to me.
The topic career wellness is a very important one because I have been going through a very stressful phase of making the right decisions in terms of what I want to do after graduation. Being able to comfortably decide to work or go to graduate school right away was not an easy thing to do at all. After Monday’s lecture, I have learned a lot about how not to stress about my after-Lawrence career. I have learned some very helpful tools and tips that I can utilize to help adjust to the new place I will be in a few months. I totally agree with the speaker on the importance of Liberal Arts education. I see how valuable learning how to think instead of what to think is. I realize how important it is to think critically and solve problems. I found Monday’s class to be very interesting because I could easily relate to the topic and the subjects discussed.
These questions should be things you think might be interesting to discuss as a class that requires more than a yes or no answer. You do not need to have the answers to these questions; instead, the questions you pose should be provocative things to discuss based on the topics. Questions with a 'yes” or 'no” answer or questions that have answers easily identified during the class presentation are NOT good questions.
