“My journalism degree from CI has given me the chance to work in production for the SEC Network and at Keeneland while still in school. I was able to land a news producer job in Dayton because I already had the skills and education they needed to get started right after graduation. I knew I wanted to go into sports and entertainment and my JOU degree was the gateway.”
