2003 Major: Economics
"My degree in Economics provided me with instant credibility to any potential employer in any field. There were never any questions about my qualifications - people considered that as a given, and things always boiled down to my personal competence and fit. Thanks to my education at Duke, I was able to gain valuable work experience in marketing, investment banking, and private law practice - seemingly unrelated - and somehow able to tie it all up into a career."
