As a double-major in marketing and accounting, the Sullivan Career and Life Planning Center was instrumental in ensuring that I graduate on time. With guidance from the center, I was able to secure a summer marketing internship. When I walked into the company, Gravity Switch, for my interview, I was put right in the job for four hours to work on a graphic design project." - Erin, Marketing & Accounting Double Major
