-: Well, I, like many of our students,
came into this program with expectations
and eyes focused on something differently
than I had when I graduated.
I had the tremendous benefit of having
professors like Dr. Frank Muska,
Professor Rod Varney,
who were able to bring both the theoretical
and philosophical and with the practical together.
And it just peaked my interest.
I saw a system that
I, to this day, believe is still
the best criminal justice system in the world.
But we have a lot of problems.
And we need people to make a difference in the world.
West Conn prepared me
to make a difference in the world.
And I have the greatest degree of respect for this place
and all the people that have come before me
that have taught me here,
that have helped me to become the person that I am today.
