Combining my two passions

Hi my name is Chloe Johnson. I am interning at Temple Athletics within their creative services team in the sports marketing department. This internship opportunity has been really eye opening for me because it is allowing me to combine two of my passions which are sports and graphic design.

This experience has made me want to pursue combining these two passions in…

Network, Network, NETWORK!

                         Transferring to Temple University for the spring 2017 semester I felt a lot of emotions. I was excited for the challenge and new beginning yet anxious like a little kid the night before their first day of school. I was also nervous and a bit scared that I would be out of place. See, I wasn’t the traditional student. I went to college straight out of high school in 2009 but dropped out to enlist in the military.

Finally made it!

My name is Amy and I am an Advertising major at the Klein College of Media and Communications. I made the decision at the age of 27 years old to get my college degree and embarked on a journey that would eventually end up here, at the American College of Physicians (ACP). I walked in May with the rest of my class and will graduate this August after the completion of my credited internship. However, it was not a road easily traveled. Along the way I had to work a full time job to support myself, in addition to dealing…
