BA '07
I had a friend who attended CCNY and told me how good the school was. The programs were really well put together. I was working at the time, so I spent half my time at work and half my time in school. Friendship-wise, I made lifelong friendships, and they still impact me today. We spent nights studying together and making bonds that will last a lifetime. We are very passionate as well. All my professors were impactful. I did my graduate studies there as well, to travel with a visiting professor. They were so helpful. Career-wise, the program really prepared me for what's happening outside. Although I worked, I was still able to not be in the box. My professors were able to push me out of that work ethic of drawing lines versus being more creative and opening my mind up to new possibilities. I was also able to tap into my creativity to make things work and be beautiful and sustainable at the same time.
