Testimonials
Professors at ESU:
Dr. Mishima, Ph.D., 2005, John Hopkins University - “If somebody asks me to assess Kendall’s professional capacities, three words should come to my mind – “intelligent,” “committed,” and “open-minded.” Kendall is "intelligent" as her 4.0 GPA in her undergraduate study testifies unambiguously. No doubt, she is one of the best performing students that I have encountered in my 20-year teaching career. Kendall is firmly "committed" to her work. She never compromises the quality of her work. In the classroom, she always sought to perfect her assignments, impressing me with her strong penchant for professionalism. She is "open-minded" in the sense that she has strong interests in foreign affairs and holds rich knowledge about the global community. She studied many international topics with me and showed her excellent sensitivity to cultural and historical differences of foreign countries. Kendall’s such aptitude should be a great professional asset in this contemporary age of globalization.”
Dr. Eliasson, Ph.D., 2005, Syracuse University - “I had the pleasure of being Ms. Sweeney’s academic advisor, and came to know her as bright, reliable, responsible, and highly motivated to acquire new skills. She writes well, learns quickly, easily adapts to new challenges, and possesses extensive knowledge of various statistical programs. Ms. Sweeney can work independently and in teams; she is very collegial, with a great personality, and would be an asset to any employer.”
Dr. McGlynn, Ph.D., 2007, Stony Brook University - “Kendall is a highly personable student. My course required students to work collaboratively in teams, with students being given the opportunity to evaluate each other confidentially regarding their teammates’ contributions. Kendall’s team rated her highly and commented that her leadership skills were vital to the team’s operation. Individually, Kendall produces work of the highest quality. The case study analysis she submitted for the course demonstrated exceptional critical thinking skills with insightful analysis. Kendall has demonstrated a real interest in political analysis and her work in my course demonstrates she has the analytical skills to thrive in such a role. Given Kendall’s academic performance and work ethic, I recommend her without any reservation. She has a bright future ahead of her and she would be a great asset to any organization.”
Coaches:
Dave Millilo, Head Coach of Shaker Heights High School Women’s Lacrosse - “When you were a high school athlete on my team at Shaker, I knew from the first time I saw you play that you were destined for greatness. You were a fierce competitor and had a work ethic that was second to none. You always pushed yourself to be the best you could be, and you inspired your teammates to do the same. And inspired me to be a better coach.
But what truly set you apart was your heart. You had an unwavering dedication to your team and your sport, and you brought a level of passion and intensity to every game that was contagious. You led by example, always putting the needs of the team above your own, and creating an environment of support and camaraderie that was truly special.”
