"After working in college admissions for several years at a much larger institution, I was taken with the powerfully committed relationships between students and faculty here at Middlesex. I have also been impressed with the way that Middlesex, as an institution, values the individual - both students and faculty members - by supporting and celebrating their interests, talents, and needs."
