Leslie Kahihikolo M.A. '20

"I thoroughly enjoyed my first year in the MA HDL program! In particular, I greatly appreciated the camaraderie with my fellow online students. Dr. Aten and Kent Annan were smart to kick off the program by having all students meet on campus for 2 weeks in August 2018, so we had a chance to get to know one another. We were able to build camaraderie throughout the year as we participated in monthly Zoom meetings with professors, worked in group projects, and vented frustrations with homework on GroupMe. I feel as though I have made new friends and look forward to next year's courses."
