Being a liberal studies major gave me the freedom and flexibility I craved as a college student with a wide scope of academic interests. By enrolling in this program, I was able to accommodate all of them: French, English, communications, theatre—and make them count.

"I wanted to be an actor and I was determined not to fail. Coming here (to Viterbo) turned out to be the best decision of my life.”

The rhetoric and social teachings provided by the degree and the leadership of my professors not only strengthened my commitment to serve, but also provided me direction to recognize whom I needed to serve most.”

My degree met the requirements for Military Chaplaincy. While at Seminary, I was commissioned into the United States Air Force as a Second Lieutenant, Chaplain Candidate. I will reappoint this summer as a First Lieutenant and will carry the designation of Chaplain. My degree, which was earned at a Roman Catholic institution, supplied me with key theological points that I would use in discussion with my Roman Catholic Chaplain Candidate peers. Additionally, these key theological points opened doors to conversations with Roman Catholic soldiers/airmen/sailors and other lay members of the R.C. faith. I believe my future training and work as a Chaplain in the USAF will benefit from my undergraduate degree.”

I chose to be a mathematics teacher for several reasons, mainly though for my love of mathematics and for the chance to make a difference in the lives of future generations. I hope that my teaching style will instill the love of mathematics into others, while helping them progress into the extraordinary individuals they are meant to be. Being a part of this program brings me closer to that dream every day. The professors are amazing with their level of expertise and experience, as well as their understanding and flexibility with me being a student athlete. Because of Viterbo, I know I have chosen the right career path.”

The coordinated dietetics program really taught us to learn and to jump in and out of new experiences all the time, so transitioning to my new position here was significantly easier than I had thought It would be.”

There is something small that we can take from each course at Viterbo and apply it to our career.”
