I had never been an online learner before, but I knew, even though I preferred to go sit in someone's class, I didn't have the time. That was an issue for me, and I still had to work. All of my professors have been loving towards me while still challenging me to learn and grow. These people truly believe in education. They truly want to see you succeed. I know great things are going to come out of this program; I have learned so much. I can't wait to see what the future holds, but I know it's going to be great.
