What Can I Do With This Major?
“Diane has always gone above and beyond to make sure not only me but the other students succeed. She's a very approachable person, listens and understands that every student learns in a different way. She’s always available to help, and often checks up on how each student is doing. I'm not the best test taker and she's helped me ease my test taking fear.” - Kali Spaulding
