Dr. McClure is so incredibly caring. During one of our small group meetings, she recognized that I was going through a difficult time at work. She took the time to speak with me privately, rather than bringing it up in front of my group. She gave me some much-needed guidance and advice that truly made a difference to me. I was considering taking a semester or two off and was afraid that I would never be able to finish my project if I did that. She encouraged me to reach out to my project chair and another professor for guidance. Fortunately, things worked out and I am going to graduate this semester. I could never fully explain how much her actions and kind words meant to me.
