The main point I will remember from Shapiro's talk is that, anywhere in the media, we will most likely start at an entry-level position. The fact that his first job was as a copy editor is pretty humbling. Shapiro also mentioned that it doesn't really matter what you major in, as long as you have a specialization that sets you apart from the rest. He also said that it's important to be competitive and a shark. In the future, I will have to apply my need to win a game of Bananagrams to my job. And I'm going to quit Wikipedia!
