The document outlines three SMART goals for the individual: 1) To pass two classes in the next month by focusing on assignments, meeting regularly with tutors, and not procrastinating. 2) To establish a resume and make career connections by July 15th with help from the career development office and experience at local venues and events. 3) To find a job in Chicago's entertainment industry starting in January 2020 by gaining experience at venues, expanding professional connections on LinkedIn, and having a job lined up before relocating.
