15 years later my education and the culture of Exeter is playing dividends. I have the courage to speak up and taken on any challenge in the workplace. In the age of AI this makes all the difference. As a woman, I am not worried about what is to come because of experience at Exeter. I literally don't feel the discomfort of speaking up or ambiguity because it was something we learned to manage daily at a very young age. I am so thankful for my mom and her trusting me with their care at the age of 12.

Loved the school and wouldn't change my time there for anything, but would not send my kids there right now. It's going through a lot of chaotic changes and is very ineffective in handling sexual assault and other mental health issues. Very competitive environment that isn't for everyone.
10/7/2016
PEA is a unique community. It is not for everyone. Research carefully what sounds "good" in marketing and reality. Do not assume due to the name that something exists. It is surprising that some fundamentals that exist in other institutions are lacking here. Absolutely this is an academically rigoro...
