3/22/11 What Does It Take to Succeed?

Today Black Wharton Undergraduate Association hosted four distinguished seniors to present to members the steps they took to achieve success in college. The four seniors presenting were Colin Williams, Dale McCook, Wesley Williams and Marlo Williams. Damien McCreath moderated the session by asking the panelists questions intended to provide key insights to navigating their individual college careers. The panelists revealed through their answers that they each were pursuing diverse interests upon their graduation, in such fields as technology, consumer products/retail, graduate school and entertainment. Even more importantly, they revealed the various resources they utilized at Penn to get to where they are. A recurring theme throughout the presentation was the call for members to explore their passions, as opposed to choosing the career options most chosen by students around them. Afterwards, BWUA extended an invitation for all present members to attend a follow up group dinner with the panelists to continue discussing what they can personally do to succeed in their own college careers.
