McDaniel Alumni: We Are Green Terrors for Life!

“Here at McDaniel, imaginative learning opportunities, spanning everything from the arts and letters – to our innovation and entrepreneurship programs, have broadened and inspired you. And this year, McDaniel leadership and faculty, who brilliantly reimagined living and learning on the Hill, became their own shining example. Throughout your pursuits of the liberal arts and sciences, you have discovered imagination at work.”

"McDaniel taught me to think critically, and this helped me tremendously at Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry, This helped me to excel, graduating in the top 5 percent of my class."

“You don’t appreciate what other people can see within you until they point it out.”

“The parts of medicine that I really liked — and what I loved about my education at McDaniel — were thinking creatively and systematically, working within teams and learning to cherish getting to know people’s stories.”

“I eventually went to law school — I liked the idea of creating policy and frameworks that help guide society — but I still had hopes that at some point I would get into the music industry. I thought it was a pipe dream.”

“Dr. Sam Case was highly influential in providing hands-on experiences to students and he was very gracious with his time.”

I’ll never forget the breadth of education and encouragement on the Hill. At McDaniel, I learned how to continue to pursue my dreams — even if they changed over time.”

“I decided to go with Kinesiology after I learned that you work with both the mind and the body, and I loved being able to focus on sports.”

“When I wasn’t working or in class, I was studying to ensure I could finish my dual degree on time.”

“If you would have told me when I was graduating from McDaniel that I’d start my own nonprofit, I would have said, ‘No way, that’s a lot,' and it is a lot. But we just built from where we were and all of a sudden, it just makes sense.”
