The people who work at Franciscan, especially in the Marketing and Communications Department, are not only solid Catholics, but people who truly want to improve and help the University. They are highly skilled and talented people, and I am honored to have worked as a SWOP worker and now intern for them. Their friendliness and willingness to teach shows their character. They put their hearts into their work, producing quality pieces that not only show technical skill but the Catholic message they are trying to communicate.
