I would like to take this opportunity first to thank you and your very competent faculty for your support and also for the wealth of knowledge passed on to me. On more than one occasion I had a potential employer tell me that it is their experience that Westervelt graduates have an advantage, upon graduation, over graduates from other schools. Mrs. Slemon is the best teacher. She is professional, knowledgeable, and the fact that she is simply a good person in the grand scheme of life is very evident. I owe a great deal of what I accomplished this year to her."
