I had no clue when I signed up to start research my freshman year the relationship that I was going to develop with my mentor. Absolutely a wonderful connection to make in the science world. She’s gone through the track that I’m looking to go through. She’s an amazing resource. They truly are here for you to succeed…Because we are such a research focused campus, and we are a smaller size, I believe that a lot more personal connections with faculty are possible.
