one of the most influential people you'll meet in your undergraduate career! I'd dropped out of college if it wasn't for her and her research program!

Real real cool lady. Very laid back and helps a lot when trying to find research. Take my word for it and do research while at madison. SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES! and will aid in future employment.
