How George Afoakwah found his #HomeAtRider: “I chose Rider primarily due to its size. I knew it was a university where I could get the attention I need and build relationships. Many of my friends at other universities have classes with 100-plus students. They do not get as much attention and assistance from faculty as I do at Rider. I have had a great time at Rider. My academic and social goals have been attained. There has been an abundance of help that has allowed me to blossom into the person I am today.” George is a senior majoring in biochemistry.

How Cait Hopkinson found her #HomeAtRider: "I wanted to come to Rider because I knew I would feel as if I were part of a family due to the welcoming environment. If it wasn't for Rider, I would've never met 'my people' and some of my current best friends. I first learned about the Norm Brodsky Business Concept Competition through my @rideruadmissions counselor. I was already taking an entrepreneurship class at my high school, so it seemed to be the perfect opportunity to put my idea to the test. My business concept was called Air Fried & Frosted.
