That type of thinking, looking past the words on the page, is a useful exercise in almost every facet of life. &#8211; Robert F. Seidler &#8217;98<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My reason for choosing English is manifold. I began at Butler in 1987 as a broadcasting major but quickly switched to English after a survey course in literature opened my mind to a world I was unfamiliar with. The English professors seemed, how shall I say,&nbsp;different. There was a certain urbanity about them that appealed to me. I can remember sitting in class and wondering how someone becomes&nbsp;like that. I wanted to read important books and consider important ideas. I wanted to write with confidence and persuade readers to accept my thesis. I wanted to know what the best writers in the world were interested in, and why. &#8211; Doug Schaak &#8217;90<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>English was one of my favorite subjects in high school.

Lately I&#8217;ve also been plotting out a script, a good old-fashioned revenge tragedy, based on a longish poem, &#8220;A Big Ball of Foil in a Small New York Apartment,&#8221; which was reprinted in&nbsp;Best American Poetry 2005. I won fellowships to the MacDowell Colony and VCCA for the summer of 2007. So I&#8217;m going to have a month and a half to be pampered and just write. &#8211; Matthew Yeager &#8217;02<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I then went to the University of Rochester School of Medicine for two years and completed my degree at the Indiana University School of Medicine in 2003. I spent the next three years at St Vincent Hospital (Indianapolis) as an internal medicine resident. I now am a partner at HMS Medical Consultants, providing both inpatient and outpatient internal medicine care. Since finishing residency and starting private practice I will return to my love of literature this fall at Butler, teaching a course in the Butler Honors program entitled &#8220;The Physician Writer.&#8221; &#8211; Annie Ewbank, MD &#8217;96<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since graduating, I write a column that appears in the bi-weekly Broad Ripple Gazette. I also work as an Editorial Assistant for Russell Publishing, proofreading articles for our three magazines, heading the campaign for three separate e-newsletters focused on the publications, and updating the websites for the magazines as well. I also play in a local all-girl band, the Peggy Sues. &#8211; Lisa Battiston &#8217;06<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following graduation from Butler I attended law school at the University of Notre Dame, practiced with the labor and employment department of the law firm of Frost Brown Todd in Cincinnati for several years, and in 2005 decided to come back to Indianapolis, where I still had so many friends and contacts, to practice law with the firm of Ogletree Deakins. &#8211; Robert F. Seidler &#8217;98<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following graduation, I attended The University Alabama and earned an M.F.A. in Creative Writing. At Alabama, I was Poetry Editor for the nationally-known literary magazine,&nbsp;The Black Warrior Review. My poems have appeared in&nbsp;The Cream City Review,&nbsp;Italian Americana,&nbsp;Georgia State University Review, and&nbsp;GulfStream. Twenty-eight of my poems will appear inAmerican Vignette, a book of landscape and wildlife photography, which will be published by Photography for the Preservation of Landscape. I have a scholarly article forthcoming with GRAAT (Groupe de Recherches Anglo-Am\u00e9ricaines de Tours). Since completing my M.F.A in 2005, I have been an Instructor of English at Florida Gulf Coast University, where I have taught Composition, Literature, and Creative Writing. &#8211; Kimberly Campanello &#8217;02<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-66042f852a9f0-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?

Probably the best time of each semester is the end when you&#8217;re working an three or four large papers. You have stacks of books surrounding your desk, and you just keep going deeper and deeper into you topics. You forget to eat&#8211;when you do remember, it&#8217;s popcorn and HiC&#8211;but you&#8217;re having a blast. All your English major friends are going through the same thing, and you have this bond&#8211;everyone is in high gear.
