Joshua says that although working while attending school was at times challenging, the ability to meet, network, and interact with people in the community has been impactful for him as those relationships are important as he moves forward in his career. Unlike other colleges, Joshua says that UNK faculty and staff care about you and your success. It may not make sense at first when they push you to pursue more, but they want to help you thrive with whatever it is you pursue in life.
