What has been your favorite part of Pirate Planning program?  My favorite part of the Pirate Planning program is the close relationships that are built. Also, the amount of knowledge that is provided by the faculty has been a great experience. Having both the educational and professional side of the planning field has allowed all of us to gain increased knowledge in the field of planning.
