Alumni
Alumni Showcase
Here in our Alumni Showcase we honor our graduates who have built upon the strong foundation of their liberal arts degrees to become leaders in their chosen professions. Some cultivated successful careers as a result of an undergraduate internship. Some used their liberal arts degrees as stepping-stones into graduate or professional schools. Others knew the minute they declared their major just what career path was right for them. Yet others admit to not having particular plans after graduation, but somehow life's circumstances led them into satisfying careers. It's probably safe to say that no two of their paths are exactly the same. It is absolutely safe to say that their liberal arts degrees set them on a course for success.
