Alum Success

"I chose to transfer to Lake Superior State University because of the personal attention I would receive. I did not want to attend a large university where I would be a number lost in the masses. The well-rounded curriculum allowed me to obtain my position at John Deere. Having a good balance of theory and hands-on knowledge is critical for my position and Lake State gave me a good foundation in these skills."

Majoring in Nursing

LSSU is great because I am so close to great hunting and fishing spots. In the fall, I frequently fish on the St. Mary's river or duck hunt about 20 minutes away. [ more ]
