Being able to work with professional faculty molded me and truly prepared me as a professional actor. I was also encouraged to be the actor/singer/dancer I am, not the mold I should fit in. Numerous producers and directors have asked where I went for my acting training. I'm proud to say I went to Viterbo University.

My experience at Viterbo was very special. My training was not only thorough, but wide in scope. Today, a career in opera requires not only excellent singing, but serious acting skills as well. I chose Viterbo based upon the strength of the theatre program as well as the small class sizes. Viterbo provided not only a great training program for actors and singers, but opened me to many learning experiences that have enriched me as an artist.

My favorite thing about being a psychology major at Viterbo was the abundance of opportunities for growth as an individual and as a learner. The professors encouraged individual exploration and related this to our learning within the classroom.”

What I liked best about Viterbo were the small class sizes and the close relationships I had with my advisor and the social work faculty. I was able to sit down with my advisor and develop an academic plan. That made me comfortable and confident in the direction I was going and in my ability to succeed.

At Viterbo, I learned that leadership does not just happen because of a title or appointment. The community respect for service and philosophy shaped my perspective on my purpose and on the value of quality work. I became an even stronger advocate for progressive values and social change.

The education received in the classroom at Viterbo accompanied by professors that truly believed in me as a student were invaluable. To accompany that education and confidence with a strong and fitting internship experience set the stage for my present career in juvenile justice.”

Viterbo prepared me for a challenging, fast-paced and rewarding career in law enforcement. The Viterbo values play an everyday role in my job as a police officer.

My learning experience at Viterbo challenged me to become the best possible teacher I could become. Viterbo pushed me to the limits, showing me what teaching young minds entailed and prepared me for what I needed when I would be in the classroom. Viterbo individualized my education so I would be prepared for my future.

My Viterbo experience opened my eyes to opportunities I never knew were available to me. My professors and coaches encouraged me to explore those opportunities and fostered an environment where I felt comfortable and confident to do so. The courses I took provided an excellent knowledge base for my law degree, and I continue to apply some of the theories and principles I learned at Viterbo in my legal career today.
