"The Presidential Leadership Program has given me the opportunity to tell my story of why I chose 新葡京app State University to those who are making the decisions that affect us as students on a daily basis, it has given me the opportunity to network with them and advocate for the student body. 这包括州议员、高级捐助者和莫滕森总统本人。 The program has helped develop me into a stronger, more efficient leader."

奥斯汀·彼得森，韦伯州立大学2023届历史专业毕业生

“I chose history as my major for that sweet spot where history and literature meet. 在中世纪和文艺复兴时期的欧洲课上，我读了《贝奥武夫》，还有但丁、乔叟、莎士比亚、弥尔顿和笛福的作品。 历史课程也教会了我如何进行研究，解释证据，并提高了我的学术写作，所有这些都将为我攻读英国文学硕士学位提供帮助。 The quality of the education I received at 新葡京app State University was all the reason I needed to stay here.”

威廉·沃德，韦伯州立大学2022届硕士研究生

“Studying history at WSU helped me develop research, analysis, and writing skills that improved my academic performance in other areas and allowed me to secure funding to pursue an MA. 韦伯州立历史系在许多不同的领域提供广泛的课程，拥有世界级的教授。 Choosing a 新葡京app in history from WSU was an excellent decision for me as I continue my education and pursue new 新葡京app in government, NGOs, and nonprofits.”

科尔宾·勒巴伦，2018届，爱达荷州立大学硕士，2021届

“I first started at 新葡京app State in 1999. 我选择了历史，因为对我来说，历史很迷人。 它几乎在每个职业中都被日常使用。 为了知道将来会发生什么，一个人必须首先分析过去。 历史系的教授是我所遇到的最聪明的人之一，他们对学生的鼓励和帮助学生取得成功的意愿是首屈一指的。 Now this semester, just shy of 20 years later, I will be graduating with my 新葡京app in history, and I haven’t been this excited about something for a long time. 新葡京app State and the people in the history department have made all this happen for me, and I can’t put into words how much this means to me and my family.” 2022 Update: "Since graduating I have worked as a certified teacher in Secondary Education 新葡京app U.S. & World History to High Schoolers in Arizona. I also have a Utah certification."

“The courses I took and the relationships I developed at 新葡京app State’s history department not only helped me gain admission into a top PhD program [Duke], but they also helped me to develop the critical and analytical thinking skills that our ever-changing world demands, and to sharpen the writing and argumentation abilities that it requires. 当我们的国家面临巨大的社会、经济和政治挑战时，我在这里学到的东西帮助我欣赏细微之处，并同情地思考，更重要的是，它让我准备好有效地利用历史知识来解决当代问题，并为我们的未来提供创造性的解决方案。 新葡京app State’s history department is a challenging environment, full of caring professors and brilliant minds.”

"Studying History at 新葡京app State allows students to gain two incredibly marketable skills - research and critical thinking. 这些技能适用于任何领域。 如果一个历史系的学生愿意运用他们在系里学到的技能，他/她就有无限的机会。 以我为例。 我于2009年获得历史学位。 I went into technical writing, where my ability to research and successfuly interpret advanced technical concepts allowed me to quickly climb the corporate ladder."
