MSFS offered an amazing and unique opportunity to learn from and work with professors who brought both their practical, high-level experience and important academic knowledge to the program. I was thrilled to have even met Professor Madeleine Albright - already my role model back in 1990. But to then become her research assistant for the remainder of my tenure at MSFS, wow, what an opportunity!
