Every professor in my program cared about me, not only as a student, but as a person and an aspiring professional. Because of their support and guidance, I found my passion for the sports & entertainment industry. The mentors, experiences, and friends I found at NU are something I will always be grateful for.Ari Musialowski, '23 Communications
