Audrey Gremmer, an allied health major said of her experience "I've learned a lot of things about myself, and through my classes, I've learned a lot. It's taught me a lot about professionalism and working with other people."
"It's been a crazy four years," said Shep Marty, a business and analytics major. "But I'm definitely going to miss all the friends. I'm looking forward to post-grad life."
