“When I reflect on the relationships I’ve built during my time here at Lurie College, I feel a large sense of gratitude. The relationships I have created with faculty members, advisors, mentors, student groups are largely what keeps me motivated and inspired to become a better version of myself each and every day. At Lurie College, I have found people who align with my deepest values such as innovation, collaboration, and scholarship. These people are the driving force that keeps me honest and focused on my aspirations of becoming a future educator. If I can create these powerful relationships, I trust that you can too, in your own style. Start with a genuine and curious ‘Hi, how are you?’”
