“I really appreciate that [the MHC Semester in D.C] program provided a new way for me to view international relations and public policy.”

“I thankfully got to tour, and I instantly felt connected. I could see just how genuine students felt about their education here.”
“I definitely want to stay connected with art, and that’s ultimately where I would love my career to go — working with a museum or within the art field.”
“I was a shy, sort of unaware person from a very conservative town. I was sort of the odd one out there, and then I came here and fell into my people and the things that I want to be doing.”
“Immediately, I realized [Kenneth Colodner’s] lab researched exactly what I was interested in, and it was one of these weird meant-to-be moments.”
