"Graduating with a degree in recreation management was probably one of the best decisions I ever made. All the staff and students knew each other very well which made class very enjoyable! Our program was one of the smaller programs, but the best program because we were interactive with each other with every class we took. I absolutely loved it! I did my internship at Mountain Thunder Lodge in Breckenridge, Colorado. I currently work at Mountain Thunder Lodge, making my way to become an Operations Manager."
