I chose UMBC because...
The strength of the engineering program and the smaller size of the school.
Favorite Class or Professor and Why
Physics 121, Dr. Anderson, he is the only professor to make a 9 am lecture interesting.
How has UMBC helped you grow?
It's taught me to be more independent and to learn from failure and not avoid it.
During my first semester, I wish I would have known...
Studying the day before an exam doesn't help that much.
