What has been your favorite part of the Pirate Planning program? My favorite part of the Planning program so far is how involved the faculty and staff are. No matter what your niche interest is, they seem to always know who to connect you to, and they are very enthusiastic when you show special interest. This is my first semester in the program, but I feel right at home.
