"The beauty is seeing students take responsibility for their lives, becoming their own people, " she sa id, stressing the importance of preparing for the "real world" whil e in college. Many seniors planned to go to graduate school after graduation. Robert Argo, a senior psychology major, said, "Lack of time is the biggest cause of stress in thinking about the future. It's so hard to concentrate on applying to grad school when I have such a heavy course load. " Others planned to move into the work force immediately. Jessica Stipp, an e lementary education major, said, "When I think about the future , I get rea lly excited about finding a teachi ng pOSition. " Some times, the most frightening part was waiting and wondering wha t the future would bring. - Amanda Nicholson Senior Ana Aguilar and junior Carlos Velasco lookJorjob openings outSide the Career Center.
