Did You Know

“MSC made my university experience feel like I was in a place I was recognized and known. Everyone in the MSC community was so friendly, and I made friendships with both students and professors. The professors at MSC are genuinely interesting people with their hands in many on-the-ground projects. I appreciated their diverse experience and interests and how they brought that to their teaching. It was great to be a part of a group of people with similar interests and concerns, and a platform where we could collaborate and raise awareness in our school environment. I always look back on my university experience with a smile thanks to the warm, thoughtful, and intelligent people of the Menno Simons College community. “Carly Kosa, 2016 graduate, 4-year IDS major
