"Luther has provided me with the fortunate opportunity to grow extensively as a world wide traveler," Sam admits. "I have gained new perspectives on cultures in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, where fellow students and I brought our own ideals abroad but also brought them back to the Luther campus."

Maggie feels that her time at Luther has allowed her to grow significantly as a student as as a person. "Everyone has always told me that going to college will help mold you into the person you are going to be and if that is true I couldn't be more pleased with the person Luther has taught me to be."
