"My SAPC education showed me the interconnectedness of life – how our art, economics, music, philosophy, politics, drama, science, technology and literature are influenced by each other. And I began to learn how those influences drive the decisions, values and relationships which color our lives. The challenge and freedom to develop my skills in critical thinking and articulate expression are the two greatest gifts I received from St. Andrews. They have served me well throughout my life and career." (2006)
