Summer goals
We were thinking summer fun, but the crowd on Locust Walk had other plans.
- Kobie Xavier, College, Class of 2000
I want to work and take classes. My goal this summer is to get my Arts & Letters requirement fulfilled and also my History & Tradition requirement. I also want to gain experience on my own here in Philadelphia. - Jun Ishidoya, College, Class of 2000
I'm going to have an internship at an advertising agency. My job is as an account director, translating and taking care of accounts. So I guess my goal is to have a good experience, get to know New York City a lot more, and to spark my interest in advertising. - Hai Ton, SEAS, Class of 2001
Take some classes; get a job, earn some money. Maybe get some class requirements out of the way. - Regine Acluche, College, Class of 1998
I'm graduating, so basically to get a job and find a place to live. - Kelash Kumar, Wharton and SEAS, Class of 1998
I'm graduating, so I just want to travel around a lot and go see a lot of places. - Joyce Yang, SEAS, Class of 2001
I want to get some work experience and have fun. I'm also taking a class because I have to. - Liane Chinwala, Wharton and College, Class of 2001

I was trying to take a class, but now it looks like I'm trying to get a job and just work. This is after I go on a road trip with my friends. - Clifford Lou, College, Class of 1998
Take a break and then find a job probably somewhere in California. I have something set up with an agency there so I'll probably do that. - Seth Beaver, SEAS, Class of 2001
