I will always be incredibly thankful for the Exercise Science department and the professors at A-State who helped shape me into the person I am today. Their guidance and continuous support always made me feel valued as a student, allowing me to learn and grow my knowledge in many areas. The program helped me learn the importance of my major, but also the importance of helping others. Being a part of this program was one of the best choices I have ever made!
