Keep up the great work, Michael!” – Dr. Pardeep Kullar
“I would like to give a big shout-out to Maria Lopez for going above and beyond to help a recent graduate secure her last minute request to be approved to take her board exams. The graduate came to the campus after hours on Friday very concerned she would miss the deadline to be approved to apply for her board exam, but Maria responded and processed the late request. Kudos to Maria for going above and beyond to help our students and recent graduates!” – Marc Martin
