βI thoroughly enjoyed the small class sizes and how they allowed for one-on-one experiences with my professors,β Oxendine said. βDrs. Astrid Oviedo, Siva Mandjiny and Rachael Smith are just a few names that come to mind when I think of my time at 51ΑΤΖζ. As professors, they pushed and encouraged to me perform. I also am thankful to God for such a wonderful opportunity.β
