Employee Comment
I love the culture of UCO. Everyone seems to be going towards the same direction--honoring the student as an individual and a future professional, and working towards the betterment of individuals and community. I truly enjoy the people I work with, and I am extremely grateful for the opportunities UCO provides for me to be developed as a professional or be a part of any number of activities within the UCO community outside of my day-to-day work.
