  • McDaniel College alumna Nicki Pesik '86 at CDC
    It was the most challenging public health experience I’ve ever head, but it was among the most rewarding.”
  • Alum Jason Swartz '18 standing at a marina.
    “It’s not just forestry and green spaces; it’s plants and people and culture. I’m even remembering my first year seminar class with Dr. Linda Semu, which was about race. Over the past year or two, we have been focusing our efforts on equity and environmental justice."
  • Ellen Larsen '10 in front of a bonfire
    “The point of a liberal arts curriculum is to expose you to new opportunities, open you up to different viewpoints, and explore different ways of thinking. This has helped me become an effective, inclusive leader who focuses on building community in the workplace.”
