  • Haley Jacobs ’17, physician assistant at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore.
    “I decided to go with Kinesiology after I learned that you work with both the mind and the body, and I loved being able to focus on sports.”
  • McDaniel College alumnus Jemar Daniel '07
    “I eventually went to law school — I liked the idea of creating policy and frameworks that help guide society — but I still had hopes that at some point I would get into the music industry. I thought it was a pipe dream.”
  • Leanna Jasek-Rysdahl '16
    “My professors played an enormous, fundamental role in developing my interests. I remember receiving graded papers that were full of comments, going into office hours to discuss what research method to use, and having lunch or coffee and talking about a conference or just general questions I had about what to do after college.”
