When I first started Hunter I honestly had no idea what to expect when I joined Muse. Now as a graduate who has still kept every ticket stub from every Muse event, I feel incredibly lucky to have had the experiences I did. I met my closest friends from college through Muse and the program itself enriched my whole college experience.”
