What advice would you give to current students and Alumni to make the most of the education they received from the College?
"I was broken academic goods when I came to the College, but through the teachers, especially Professors John Cronin and Dessa Ewing, I was able to find my way. The College is a place to take chances personally, academically and professionally. Because it is a non-traditional environment, an 18-year-old can learn a lot about life from someone twice their age. When you鈥檙e in your thirties and beyond, let the younger students teach you technology, and open you up to the exuberance of a fresh view on life. Take part in the extra curricular activities, they help you find your passion for a career or to develop a voice for personal development. I was always interested in politics and served in Student Government for two years. I also contributed to the student newspaper, and was a regular host on the campus radio station. I even received a varsity letter as possibly the worst cross-country runner in collegiate history, but I have my letter and I treasure it to this day. In short, use the safety of an environment where everyone cares about you and your success, and milk it for every ounce of experience you can. In the end you will get out as much or more than you give, because that鈥檚 the College鈥檚 mission.鈥�
