"Most college professors just help students learn about their major. My professors at UTC taught me how to be a successful chemical engineer, but they also taught me how to be a better person. I plan to take what I've learned to graduate school and into my future career in research."
--SAMANTHA SWECK, CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
