Subject: RE: The Weekly Walkabout
"Humanitiess graduates are attractive to many employers because of their personal transferable skills rather than the specific skills that they have gained during their degree course. Many of the skills that are gained on a humanities degree are highly sought after in almost every job. These skills include:

ability to write well in a variety of styles.
to organise your work and meet tight deadlines.
to convey meaning precisely.
to summarise, argue and debate.
to research, select, analyse, organise and present information.
to think logically."
