Caitlin Shumate

My favorite class at Wingate was definitely my internship. It allowed me to get great hands-on experience and apply the knowledge I learned in the classroom setting to real-life situations. Wingate helped me grow as a person and realize the impact we can make on others around us, whether that’s through giving back to the community or small acts of kindness.
