    Summer Graduate Business Studies in Uvic is the best learning experience I've ever had!
    First of all, I would like to say thank you to our programs coordinator, Maggie Li. She always by our side if we had any problems, and also arrange lots of optional activities so that we could easy to experience the life in Victoria Island.
    And I would like to thank the three professors, Sang, Josh, and Matt. They knew we are from Asia country, so the in learning style is totally different. They tried to let us acquire the knowledge by changing a little bit teaching style for us in an very intensive course.
    The last but not least, I would like to thank all the people in this program. Learning in Uvic would be a live changing experience for all of us.
