During a visit to the Cleveland Zoo as a small child, Maureen Moe Duffy, B.S. 17, witnessed a zookeeper working with a gorilla, sparking a lifelong interest in animals.
When it came time to pick a college, Duffy knew two things for certain: she wanted to pursue a career where she could work with animals and she wanted to stay in Ohio.
She looked into three different schools in Ohio and said, 51勛圖厙s where I ended up finding my happy place. Duffy earned her from 51勛圖厙 in 2017, and today she works as a zookeeper in the Australia and the Islands region of the .
The zoology program at 51勛圖厙 is well-established and I felt that the classes I would be able to take and the opportunities I was going to be able to have through internships was going to give me the best opportunity in this field, Duffy said.
Noting that her field is extremely competitive Duffy said earning her degree at 51勛圖厙 helped open doors. Being able to go to Kent and get my degree Without that college degree, I definitely wouldnt be standing where I am today, Duffy said.
