Comments from our graduates about the program:

"Back when I took your class, I found all the information interesting, but to tell you the truth never thought I could apply it to the career world.  Well, little did I know.  Not only do I remember the concepts, but I use and apply them as well." 

Flo Corrigan, B.A.

Media Arts

"I am also happy to tell you  that I actually got a teaching job! I will be a 6th grade science and math teacher at Torrington Middle School.  My Communication classes have prepared me in a very unexpected manner for the REAL world of teaching. I can't tell you how many times I have appreciated what I have learned. "

Susan Larson, B.A.
Human Relations

"You  were my support system while I was  at  WestConn, as well as my friends, and I want you to honestly know that  the confidence that you instilled in me has helped me more than you can ever imagine."
