Jocelyn Baca (B.S. 19)The Mathematics Department at St. Mary’s was influential in showing me what a collaborative work environment that nurtures student’s academic development looks like. They have an open-door policy that is welcoming. As a result, I got to know many of my professors and I often sought their advice on career matters.
