12. Would you pursue a career here?
Tyler - Yes, actually want to become a personal trainer eventually. Want to go into physical therapy however I feel that a position here will be a good one to have in the meantime.
Brendon - No, I would not pursue this career just because my sole purpose in our major is to become a chiropractor out of it. The reason i want to become a chiropractor is because I have a herniated disc in my lower back, therefore i want to treat and prevent problems relevant to the spine.
Anthony- Yes, I am interested in developing and implementing wellness programs. I like the aspect of giving back to the community.
