“I think that the real-life aspect of internships,
clubs and organizations that you get outside of
the classroom is going to be one of the most
valuable experiences you can have as a student.
The professors that are in the School of Public
Service do a great job of getting students
involved in those organizations, they do a great
job with their outreach and empowering their
students to succeed.”
