UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN River Falls
Why did you choose to attend UWRF?
It is the best of both worlds - far from home and close to the Twin Cities and smaller campus.
What was your most memorable UWRF experience?
Traveling to Taiwan, China, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Uganda.
What was your favorite course at UWRF? Why?
Accounting with Dawn Hukai – she challenged not only our minds in relation to numbers, but for extra credit she tested us on the college's mission. She knew her accounting, and made accounting fun in her own way.
How did your degree prepare you for your current profession?
The critical thinking, the people skills and confidence in my own growth in business courses prepared me for my current position.
What advice do you have for prospective students who are considering UWRF?
Don't be afraid of a challenge. UWRF has all the resources to prepare you to make life changing decisions. Ask for help when needed and always question the unknown.
