Student Testimonial

Sarah Walker

The professors in the social science department have taught me an entirely different way to make history come alive. Through the use of various types of media I have learned to tell the story of a time period or event in history. Between the professors’ interaction with each other and with students, I felt like I was part of a big family in my years at APU.”
