"The episode really captures the student experience at Delaware Valley University," said DelVal Interim President Dr. Benjamin Rusiloski. "This year, we're celebrating 125 years of experiential learning. Through our award-winning Experience360 Program, 100 percent of our undergraduate students gain relevant, real-world experiences before graduation. E360 is so much more than a typical internship program. This episode really shows the kinds of experiences our students are participating in and, what makes a DelVal education so powerful."
