 English major Matt Muskin ’10 (“101 Things To Do Before You Graduate”) has about 101 things on his résumé, from Student Government Association VP and Student Governance Affairs Board, to admission communications and athletics marketing internships, to Theta Chi brother. He’s been hired as an honors paralegal specialist with the U.S. Department of Justice.
   

 The portfolio of Norm Bendell (“101 Things To Do Before You Graduate”) includes two of the most successful illustration campaigns in the history of advertising, Perrier and Budget Gourmet, as well as the launch of Prodigy and the bestselling American Girl Library books The Care and Keeping of You and The Feelings Book.
   
 Jim Leach (“Living In History”) retired in 2005 as vice president for public relations and communications after 25 years at Colgate. He redirected his energies to a second career as a higher education communications consultant, freelance writer, and nature photographer.
   
 When Sophie Paris ’97 (“Diary From Haiti”) last left Haiti, little did she know she’d soon be back shooting the worst disaster in the country’s history. A United Nations photographer, she has covered UN affairs worldwide, from peacekeeping efforts, to Security Council meetings, to the secretary-general’s missions. She also freelanced as a photographer for Hillary Clinton’s presidential primary campaign.
