The best thing about my major is how practical, yet specialized it is. Things I learn in my classes make a big impact on my relationships with friends and family, and also prepare me to be the best I can be in the Public Relations world.

Generally speaking, what impact has the Oswego faculty had on you?
The faculty here has helped me realize how important education is. The faculty has also shown that learning goes beyond the classroom and the things that we talk about in class can be used in everyday life and in everyday situations. Overall, the faculty has helped me prepare for the real world.

Who's your favorite professor and why?
It's a two way tie between Rob Scott and Steve Granelli. They make it easy to be a favorite of mine: before class, I am excited to go, during class, I am having fun, and after class, I leave feeling confident and of course, with a big smile.
