鈥淚 think that I just decided to take on the neuroscience minor on a whim, but I am glad that I did. I appreciate the interdisciplinary aspect and that it is a minor that can be useful to people with lots of different academic backgrounds. The professors were interesting and brought a lot of knowledge to the program.鈥�
