“The staff is incredible. They accommodated my dietary needs. They could not do enough for us- they really spoiled us. The team is professional, considerate, kind, engaging, upbeat and friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at the U. It was fun to be back in the classroom and I feel that I took away a lot of great and applicable information.”
