The first Longwood University Communication Studies students to be featured in our Alumni Spotlight segment are Hannah Meadors (class of ‘15) and Laura Pugh (class of ‘13). The two recent graduates have found a new home working for Breaking Limits, LLC in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Laura Pugh, an Account Executive at Breaking Limits, graduated from Longwood in 2013 and has a soft spot for the Communication Studies department and the COMMunity she graduated from. As an alumnus applying her trade in the workplace, Laura values the experience that she was able to gain throughout her years at Longwood.
“I still keep my connection with the Communication Studies department because they were so helpful for my development as a student and as a professional.”
– Laura Pugh
Since graduating in May, Hannah has been able to reflect on the skills she developed within the Communication Studies program. She attributes her success to the abundance of hands on learning that was carried out in the classroom.
“The professors want to help, they’re there to help you. They want to be hands on and give you as much experience as you’re willing to accept.”
– Hannah Meadors
The Longwood COMMunity has a strong connection beyond the classroom and wishes these two graduates the best in their careers. We will all be watching intently as they continue to grow.
