The globalization of businessEconomics
The globalization of business makes it an imperative to have international experience. Kalamazoo College has been providing this experience longer and does it better then any other school. It is an education which pays a lifetime worth of dividends. What's more, "K" makes the journey a blast!

Question
Kalamazoo College was undoubtedly the best place IEconomics
Kalamazoo College was undoubtedly the best place I could have gone to college. There is no other institution that where I could have graduated with a degree in Math/Economics, studied French language and litterature, and lived six months in St. Petersburg, Russia, all in four years.The value of the education I received is without measure, but surpassing it is the quality of the friendships that I made in my four years at Kalamazoo. While it's true that any one who goes to college is, without a doubt, going to make life-long friends, K College provides a unique place for people with astonishingly diverse and eccletic backgrounds, goals and lives to meet.

Question
Sure, the classes were tough and the first-yearEconomics
Sure, the classes were tough and the first-year retention rate seems rather low. But I think K-College did (and still does) a great job of weeding out the weak. I spent 4 years surrounded by quality students and faculty who did not hesitate to throw a few challenging curve balls. Upon graduation, I found I was more than ready to meet the challenges of life "outside the bubble". Looking back, I wouldn't have changed a thing about my college choice.
