Milestones in uncertain times

I work at WCU. Did she not like the school? What program was she in? Like any school, there are some good and not so good programs.

This article contains an error. It mentions one graduate going on to graduate school at Wingate College. I went to Wingate when it was a college but it is now Wingate University. Some fact-checking would be nice.

She really liked the school (a lot BETTER than UNCA) she was in the field of interior designer. Another cousin of mine is there as well, and her major is teaching.
