Alisha Boren BA Entertainment Industry, '24

The best part of my 海角社区 experience has been all of the great relationships I have made within and through the school that I know will last past this season of life. I have created relationships with some amazing people at this school that want to work just as hard as me to achieve their goals. Through 海角社区, I have found connections in others who have long graduated but share similar experiences to mine.

海角社区 is helping me prepare myself for my career by exposing me to all the different aspects of the music business, whether it's artist management, record label operations, publishing, and presenting me with contracts that I will run into in the real world, breaking them down for me helping me understand that language. If you're a creative like me and you want to get a degree in the arts, 海角社区 is the perfect place.
