Student Perspectives

• Jessica Gatewood '00

  being a scientist doesn't have to mean wearing a white coat.

  Jessica Gatewood credits Mary Baldwin with shaping not only what she knows, but also her thought process and the way she approaches problems. She was encouraged – sometimes relentlessly persuaded – to come up with creative solutions.
• Emily Duncan ' 19

  I am excited to be at a school that cares about me and my future.

  Emily Duncan came to MBU from a large online undergraduate program, where she often felt like she was just a number, not a student. The first conversation she had with her new advisor in our Online and Distance Learning program was a breath of fresh air. They sat down, talked about her educational goals, and mapped out a personalized plan to reach them.
• Berra Kabarungi '14

  I continually experience things that remind me that life itself is a school.

  Berra Kabarungi, a former Rwandan refugee and Social Work graduate, was more than an international student. She uprooted her successful career and life for a new identity as a student at a small, liberal arts college that was unknown to her. Ask any student, alumni, faculty, or staff that met Berra and they'll tell you – she made every moment count.
