A Sports Management Degree offers a wide array of job opportunities and possibilities.

It's finally time. The moment I choose what college I will be attending. This is the moment where my life changes and I start my college career. I knew I wanted to go to a community college and eventually transfer to a university after getting my degree. I had a list of options, Macomb Community College, Oakland Community College, and Mott Community College. Mott was the first one to get the boot. Mott doesn't have the exact program I was looking for. The career I am pursuing is a legal assistant or also known as a paralegal. Oakland Community College sounded like the school for me.
