I would like to comment on Mr. Hohenstein's presentation. He made it seemed so attainable to receive an education and then live out your dream within Mass media. It is an inspiration as well as motivation to continue to excel within myself and the pursuit of my goals. His most impressive personal accomplishment in my eyes would have to be working for a multitude of different radio stations before settling for a position at CBS. And also, that the station has begun to cut spending due to the state of the economy. It seems that the economic instability brings every individual together in the sense that it affects us all. But Mr. Hohenstein also is that guiding light that assures us we can make the same happen for ourselves. I thank you for your words and your time.

I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation of Louise Warenda and Tiffany Lawrence for capstrat. They were both very encouraging, and I hope that acquiring an internship is as simple as they made it sound. To solidify a position with such a company as an intern would be ideal for myself and definitely a goal. It would be a welcome addition to my resume.

I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation of Miss McCrae this past Friday afternoon. She was truly inspiring in all aspects. It is encouraging to see someone have that level of success in the area of media that interests myself. I hope to one day meet and interview celebrities and possibly even open a club. She is evidence that you have to begin somewhere, even if it is minimal, and work your way to the top. Hopefully, being a part-time student and working 40 hours a week, I will be just as lucky to make the right connections to the right people to get started in my field.
