Homework: Academic Success and Professional Development Plan Part 1: Developing an Academic and Professional Network
When was the last time you read Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions and Several Steps in my Sickness-Meditation XVII?
Unless you are a student of 17th-century poetry, you may not be all that familiar with this piece by author John Donne. However, you may be much more familiar with one of its well-known phrases: "No man is an island."
As you begin your journey toward achieving your academic and professional goals, you have a great opportunity to network with academics and professionals who can help ensure you do not travel alone. This network can help to clarify your own vision for success and can help guide you now and in the future. To paraphrase Donne, no one is an island.
