[How to Get a Job] Challenge.

[Jessica Dickinson Goodman]

Dear Scholars,

Reading over your 5 Year Plans, I was reminded how proud I am to be working with such an ambitious and impressive group. I've left individual comments for each of you on your plans, but wanted to issue a general challenge:

Do something you listed as a goal for 2016 this year. You talked about everything from sewing a dress to quitting smoking to publishing poetry and research to auditioning for an opera. If that's really where you want to be in 5 year, why wait?

I'm going to apply to work for the Trafficking in Persons Report section of the State Department, because that's where I want to be in 5 years.

Have a restful and non-sick night Scholars,

Jessica
