THE POWER OF OPPORTUNITY

You learn to live more simply here. You have an opportunity to re-think what’s important and what your priorities are. On the other hand, I am fully aware of being “spoiled,” sometimes wishing I could drop by Macy’s to buy a suit or drive through Starbuck’s on the way to work.

Associate Professor, Department of Clinical Medicine

THE POWER OF OPPORTUNITY

Life is certainly different here—an adventure and a learning experience. Not everyone stays forever. You can stay a few years and move on or find out that you’ve fallen in love with the island, community and all that the position has to offer. I still can’t imagine working anywhere else!

LAURA WELKE, PH.D.

Vice Chair, Associate Professor, Department of Anatomy

THE POWER OF OPPORTUNITY

My colleagues are a great group of people—they come from all over, have interesting stories and experiences, and tend to take care of each other. That’s something that’s missing in many other places.

JOLYNE DRUMMELSMITH, PH. D.

Associate Professor, Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology
