"Mimi Yang has been an influential guide in my college career and I deeply appreciate all that she had done. She's helped me in both Chinese and Spanish. She has insight that broadens my own thinking to the point where I can come up with different ideas that I would have never thought of before."
— John Gutt-Jankowski, '14
