I was always struck by the professionalism and high standards that LOR upheld , and I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of . I saw the opportunities that opened up for students after completing the program , and the recognition they gained , as well as the more tangible skills this class teaches . Even for students not interested in colt starting as a career , the skills here translate across disciplines , and I knew that ' s something I wanted to challenge myself with .”

The lasting connections that are made throughout the year have been an absolute treat .
