MUS 110 has definitely been one of the bright spots during this 2020 year. All credit has to go to Prof. Mitchell, who makes fun and engaging assignments that spark thought and creativity! He will go down as one of the best teachers I have had at WT; the least I can do is recommend him!

You’re Awesome, Professor Traci Rowe!
I had professor Rowe last semester and she was the best teacher I’ve ever had, even now! She was inspiring and helped make the course more than just about learning, she helped us incorporate the material into our lives. She is so beyond nice and she is my standard for an amazing professor!

Dr. Doug Hummer
Doug went above and beyond while helping me learn VidGrid this fall. He took the time to meet with me on MS Teams and he never seemed to be irritated with my silly questions. Doug is a real team player and an asset to our college.

I have been amazed and touched by how our dear HOD Joan Romano has rallied around us ever since we converted to emergency online teaching. Her daily department meetings have been a great source of support. She even came and recorded some videos for me in the busiest of times. Thank you, Joan!
