History majors have long served the public through various roles in government. Rowan history majors have worked for all levels of government from the Central Intelligence Agency to the New Jersey Office of the Governor to local county and municipal agencies. Some have worked as analysts for policy institutes or think tanks. At least three have served as President of a college or a university. One of our majors was elected Secretary of Education for the State of Florida! You can read the stories of some of these alumni below.
