Viterbo seemed to be a perfect fit because as I was making my way into administration, I was also getting the education part of administration through Viterbo. It proved to be wildly beneficial for both my job and my program, as I was taking things from my program and applying them to my work.”

I never felt at any time it was like busy work. Exposure to new techniques, new innovations in classrooms, whether it’s technology, or for my research I did a flip classroom. I don’t think I even knew what a flip classroom was until I started or thought about that research. But I was trying to do something that applied to me and something that I thought would help.”

I felt like every class I took improved me as a classroom teacher but also helped me to see myself as a leader as I was developing my leadership skills. Every professor was so involved with who I was and they wanted me to grow in my leadership skills.”

Viterbo provided me with a great academic background that was challenging at times, but also allowed for a lot of space for fun, excitement, and enjoyment. I thank every single person who made my experience this enjoyable and helpful.”

As someone who loves to be challenged, I found studying math at Viterbo was incredibly rewarding. The small class sizes gave me the support I needed to be a successful student and teacher. I was more than just a number (pun intended); I formed strong relationships with my peers, and classes provided us the forum to question the axioms taught. The approachable math professors compelled me to think about mathematics as more than a set of arbitrary rules and numbers. We were shown that elegance can be found by taking the complexity of the world and expressing it through a well-formed and logical proof.”

The Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling program was an amazing experience that definitely prepared me well for my role at the Boys and Girls Club. I learned a tremendous amount about the development of children and adolescents. My Viterbo experience has been life changing in so many ways, not just academically and professionally with my career, but also socially. I’ve met so many great people here who I know will be part of my life forever. I received an outstanding education and I was completely prepared to take on my role at the Boys and Girls Club.”

As we grapple with servant leadership and that theory we see it hands on and in front of us because the faculty reaches out and they are consistent to the point where we can see what good work looks like."
