"As a business student at Southwestern Adventist University, I was provided with so many opportunities. With small classes, you really feel that your voice is heard, especially when you’re having trouble with a certain project or assignment. The professors are all very approachable and are great mentors -- they have your best interest at heart."
"Being part of the Enactus team was a very rewarding and empowering experience. I would advise all students to join this wonderful team that will provide them with many skills, not only in your personal life but your future career as well. I can truly say that my experience with the Department of Business Administration and Enactus helped me to get where I am today. Those great memories will stay with me forever."
