    I just started there this year and am so far loving it! The teachers and staff in the Student Resource center have been nothing but helpful and patient. As a transgender student, there is always the worry that I will not be accepted and feel unsafe on campus. That has not been the case. My instructor specifically I have already formed a good bond with. She is very kind and understanding and respectful of my identity and I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. The campus itself provides a wonderful learning atmosphere, and the students as well seem rather willing to help.

    When I graduated high school, I enrolled at Lake Superior College in Duluth, MN. I did not enjoy the college classes I was taking. I looked into WITC-Superior and thought I would give it a try since I took a class there when I was in high school. I love that the staff is always willing to help you achieve the goals you want to meet. The support staff is amazing with new students and are always willing to go above and beyond to help our students. I feel that WITC is a well-known school and people always have good things to say about the school. I do feel that the Superior campus could be a little bigger. I will always refer people to WITC if they are looking for a great two-year college!
    I am in my final semester of the ADN program at WITC. I chose to go here for a couple of reasons, one including the fact that I already have a bachelor's degree from another school with the debt to prove it. I have enjoyed my time very much. The college itself is small and allows for the ability to get to know your classmates and instructors very well. They employ instructors that really care about you and want you to succeed. The nursing program itself is extremely challenging and is highly regarded in my area. I am grateful to be getting an education from this program because I know that local hospitals hold the graduates from WITC in high regard for not only their clinical skills but also their ability to critically think. Overall I am so impressed with my time here and glad that I decided to attend this college over a university. It is reasonably priced, well staffed with knowledgeable instructors and I have learned a ton!
