Jewel Sophia Younge

I chose UIC, primarily, for the videotaped lectures. Although I try never to miss class, I love that I can go home and re-listen to lectures.

Alum

Thomas Westerkamp

Many hands pulling in one direction can share the load. I want to help the students whose careers will follow mine, and I hope other alums feel the same.

Class of 2015
