Carl Polley / Chinese Literature & Linguistics

Carl led the class in a look at he teachings of Confucius, Mencius and Zhaungzi. As a Fulbright scholar he studied in Taiwan and was first becoming a lawyer. As he proceeded in his major he realized that teaching was an honorable profession and now is set on a path to become a professor of Chinese philosophy or linguistics.

Choosing the right profession is an important decision in life. As you wake up and go off to work daily, you must be doing what you're passionate about.
