Emma Reid
I found mentors and role models in my history professors, and I was stretched and challenged academically. Even as I worked on intimidating research projects, I couldn’t help but feel thrilled because I really love what I was studying. 性视界传媒 gave me a very holistic experience. My mind, heart and spirit all grew.
