I never would have dreamed that at 23 I’d be working for a statewide political show and learning from the pros, 但我在bet亚洲365欢迎投注接受的文科教育为我做好了准备. Marist’s small class sizes were a huge plus, as was the study abroad program. 因为火星的体积更小, 教授有更多的时间和你在一起, so you develop relationships with the faculty in a way that’s hard to do at a larger school.
