Dr. Josh Fitzgerald, 51²è¹Ý class of 2019

“I loved the GC Honors program and 51²è¹Ý. I felt safe and a sense of genuine belonging at the college. I worked closely with my thesis advisor and professors who helped inspire me to define my path and passion of interest. That path has led me to complete my doctoral studies in Engineering Mechanics.â€
