“As I look back, I have never regretted my decision to attend bet36365体育. As a math major, I knew that I would obtain the knowledge and problem solving skills to be successful in my future business career. Along the way the campus community provided a great support system; however the math department provided another community of its own where students and professors got to know each other very well and ‘face the challenge’ together. With a later addition of a finance minor and my math background, by graduation, I knew that bet36365体育 had provided the knowledge, the experience and a great college community to make my degree very meaningful and valuable."
