How many semesters did you spend in DUS?: Four.
Why did you choose DUS?: I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up.
What resources did you use in your exploratory and decision-making process?: I met with my counselor on a regular basis. He suggested various courses to try. I decided on business after my macroeconomics course. He also suggested I use the services at the career resource center.
Did DUS benefit you? If so, how?: Yes, it helped me choose a major and career.

What major(s) (and minor(s), if applicable) did you end up choosing?: Accounting
What year did you graduate?: 1987
What extracurricular activities made a difference in your college experience?: I was involved in Golden Key National Honor Society and was the Communications Officer. This experience helped me work with a team and gain leadership experience. I was also a member of Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity. This helped me give something back to the community.
Looking back, would you have done anything differently during your time at Penn State?: My only regret is that I didn't double major with teaching. Now I'd like to take courses so that I could teach accounting.
