Frank Rodski
Jurisprudence student
"Students in the honors program care a lot about their education and school as a whole."
Denit honors student Frank Rodski appreciates the personal aspects of UBalt, including the fact that his professors know him by name. An aspiring lawyer (and future UB School of Law applicant!) who plans to become a legal consultant for business, Rodski has been in honors since his freshman year. He's still friends with many of the students he first met there, and still spends a lot of time in the honors lounge. -
