>> I think while I was here I made a lot of connections with people that were similar
in interests and backgrounds to me but also people that were
of more diverse backgrounds and interests.
And I think that helps in any profession today is being able to draw from experiences
that you've had in more situations other than just your little, you know,
environment that you live and work in.
I was a member of the marching band here.
I was on the flag team.
So that was an important part of what I did while I was here at Temple.
And, you know, part of my time was as a commuter and part of my time was also living on campus.
So I was able to have the best of both worlds, to experience from that standpoint.
It was just very exciting to be here.
I think it's even more exciting today as the university continues to grow and develop.
And I could not even imagine myself going anywhere but Temple.
