UI sophomore, Civil Engineering
Parkland student
“You get the same quality education in smaller classes, with more aff ordability.” Greatly impressed with a Calculus III course he took at Parkland in the summer, Ethan decided to take even more courses for fall “I just opened the course catalog and took a lot of courses that looked interesting to me—and every single course I’m taking transfers into my degree at the UI ” What are those “interesting” courses he’s taking? “Linear algebra, macroeconomics, philosophy, and professional writing—so far, I enjoy them and find the personal attention I get in each class unique to Parkland ”
