“Goucher makes an effort to help students fit in here by giving everyone an opportunity to start a club, whether it’s your first year or your last year. There are a lot of options, a lot of opportunities.”
"Much of the work I did during my micro-internship overlapped with the full-time job I got after graduation. The micro-internship confirmed that it was work I was interested in and capable of doing in my career."
“I've been provided with many opportunities to open myself up and experience new places; I've really learned to see and accept a broader world view."
“I think learning is more fun when class material is related to lived personal experience. I had great teachers do that for me.”
