“Public policy leadership doesn’t teach students what to think, but rather how to think. As future leaders, it is extremely important to critically think and create efficient solutions to societal issues. Public policy leadership prepares us to do just that."
Why did you decide to study public policy leadership?
I studied public policy leadership because my end goal is to return to the Delta, practice law, and become either a judge or a state senator. The program prepared me for a career serving the public.
