"My education at St. Andrews, my English major and the four years that I worked at St. Andrews as the Director of Annual Giving have proven invaluable in my career as a fundraising professional. St. Andrews encourages critical thinking and taking responsibility for your thoughts and actions. I cannot think of any job, profession or career in which these skills are not required. St. Andrews also stressed writing throughout all areas of the curriculum. Writing is the base for all effective communication. Become a good writer and you will become a good communicator, whether you are crafting letters or proposals or are interacting verbally one-on-one, in small groups or when presenting to large audiences. If you strive always to communicate clearly, you will be successful." (2006)
