Ok, let’s be honest, English degrees have been unfairly stigmatized, mainly as a contributing factor of chronic unemployment (see image on right). However, DePaul English graduates are navigating the current job market confidently and coming back to share what they’ve learned. We’ve been interviewing alumni in a range of fields (from professional writers to marketing executives) as far back as 1991 to as recently as 2009. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be posting these interviews here and archiving them on separate alumni profile pages (check out the new drop-down menu at the top of the page)
