Having studied Philosophy at other universities prior to attending UVU, I feel particularly lucky to get to study under our amazing faculty here. They have worked incredibly hard to ensure I have the access and resources to be successful, and the program has challenged me to be my best student and best self, as well as has opened my world to a variety of topics and subjects I would have never thought to google but that have been immensely useful to know.
