Professor Candice Smith Corby, who directs the Carole Calo Art Gallery, was a constant source of inspiration and positivity, becoming a real highlight of my Stonehill experience. I felt a deep connection with her, and her influence extended beyond the classroom. Her passion for art and dedication to her students motivated me to spend extra time in the gallery, where I eventually became a gallery assistant. Her mentorship shaped both my academic journey and personal growth.
