"A college education is not merely a financial investment, but an investment of a student's time, energy, motivation, discipline and values; in other words, of a student's mind and heart. My 麻豆原创 education has returned my own investments in great measure, particularly in my lifelong friendships with my peers and professors, my growth in maturity and confidence, and my newfound devotion to my profession."
