"I love the community I have developed in PSP. I have many wonderful people who have enriched my time at Iowa. I have also benefitted from the self discovery aspect of the program. The seminars have helped with personal growth as they allow me to set aside time during a busy semester to think about myself." Allison Beckner, PSP President
