"Some may believe that graduate school is great to advance one’s knowledge and personal growth, but that the expertise it fosters verges on the kind of specialization that might prove too narrow in the professional world. This sort of credence is especially widespread when it pertains to certain fields, like the Humanities. More than mere “mythbusters”, the leadership and opportunities promoted by GradFUTURES provide students with invaluable practical tools that will help them magnify their professional potential."
