| "My experience within
the Nebraska Wesleyan Biology Department was wonderful.
Each faculty member I interacted with cared about the
students, challenged us with difficult material, but taught
us using styles that made hard concepts easier to comprehend." |

| “Being in the Biology
Department at Wesleyan enabled me to interact with faculty
who are not only great educators and scientists, but also
great mentors. Whether we were in the classroom, chatting
in a professor's office, hiking through a tall-grass prairie,
or singing songs around a campfire, I was always learning
from those around me." |
