What's up?

up is way up at Angela Yee and I am here with lieutenant governor of New Jersey

Tahisha Way. Welcome.

Well, thanks for having me, Angela.

To way up, we were having a conversation.

I was like, hold on, on save it because we both were

English majors in college you went to Brown University which is where my brother

went and I went to Wesleyan and you said what did your parents tell you about your

major English yeah the first thing they said You said, what did your parents tell you about your major, English?

Yeah, the first thing they said is, Tehesia, what you're going to do with that?

So, you know, I had to say, well, you know, mom and dad, there's plenty you can do with an English degree and here I am so

I you know I thought I was going to be a teacher for a little while and you know that's important if you want to teach and I did this whole urban education semester

But I will say that English is important being able to write and to be able to read and comprehend things quickly, that major helped me a lot when it comes to that.

Because I think the skill of being able to effectively write something,

whether it's a proposal or, you know, a marketing or deck whatever it is that you need

that is definitely something that a lot of people I think are not up to par on no 100% I tell you I'm for me similarly so on. I too was thinking education, perhaps becoming like a college English professor.

And then my dean at Brown, Dean Perry Ashley, still out there, hello, he said to me, well, you know, with an English degree

Tage you can do so much, you've analyzed things, you've researched, you write all the time, so I've even seen you on campus

advocating for various needs, so why don't you think about law school?

Ooh! Yeah, yeah, so it all crystallized and you know I at that time too during that

summer I had just finished pledging Alpha Kappa Alpha so I want to shout out to my fellow swords and of course the entire divine nine but

Afterwards I want to say several months afterwards I suffered a cerebral hemorrhage Angela.
