Before coming to Bluffton University, Caroline Schutz ’21, a TESOL major from Rawson, had never held a job. Instead she focused on academics and athletics, but when she was offered a Learn and Earn position in the admissions office, she decided to enter the working world as a student employee.
“I definitely think working here has helped me establish accountability, team work and conflict management skills,” said Schutz. It’s given me a peek into the future and has shown me how connecting with people and building relationships can propel you forward.”
