Alyssa Boardman
Western Technical College (Western)
Human Resource Management
When I started, I planned to take courses at Western and then transfer. It was a smart financial option and would allow me to take time to figure out my career plans. Growing up in La Crosse, I had many people in my life who shared positive experiences of Western. When I started my courses, I was so impressed that I felt welcome. My instructors wanted to build connections with me, they wanted to get to know me, and they cared about who I was inside and outside of the classroom.
