Being a Studio Art student has helped prepare me for my future career by allowing me to have the opportunity to explore several different ways of art creation, and given me the ability to work in several different mediums and programs. I feel that I am well-rounded in my abilities and I can be confident with these skills as I go into the workforce."

Brenau gives me the opportunity to put myself out there without fear of rejection or failure. So many of my classes have encouraged active engagement and participation. I feel very comfortable speaking my mind and sharing what I think with others even if I think they may disagree with me."

Within the mass communication program, I was learning how to be on the radio in my first year. Not many people can say that. I just really felt that there were more opportunities here for me at Brenau in my program and in what I wanted to do, then there would've been had I gone to another school."
Sydney Hencil Mass Communication
Throughout my time at Brenau, the one thing that stood out to me and made my experience unique was the close-knit family that was created by my professors, colleagues and mentors. With this community, I was able to produce my best work, be authentically myself and make mistakes."

The faculty and my cohort were extremely supportive beyond the academic aspects of it. They were just emotionally supportive. Everything you needed, they were there. That was the best part of going here. This is the first degree that I have where I can go straight into working, and I'm just super excited to get out into the workforce and contribute to society."

I've been in a handful of productions here so far, and I get to work with some of the best people. I really feel fulfilled when I get to work on not only a new project, but when I'm surrounded by like-minded people who enjoy what they do."

Embrace everything Brenau has to offer. It was genuinely the best four years of my life, and I'm so glad that I took every opportunity. I said yes to every door that opened and learned to grow from every experience. It has played such a big role in who I am today."
