How did Dana help prepare you for your career or graduate school?
Dana helped prepare me for my career through its high standards and its variety of academic offerings. I developed leadership and interpersonal skills through the many opportunities to participate in campus activities and organizations.

What do remember most about your time at Dana?
What I remember most was the sense of community. I made lifelong friends while and Dana … and we still all share in that experience of living, studying and competing together. We grew close to our professors (because they took such a personal interest in us) and still keep in touch with them as well. The thing that makes Dana stand out is the fact that its graduates and staff are people who make a difference in the lives of others.
