“Professor Hsu was not only my advisor during my time at ϲ but also one of my favorite professors. She constantly challenged and pushed me to reach my full potential as a student. During my oh-so-frequent office hour visits while writing my honors thesis, she listened, provided guidance, and gave the occasional (but very necessary) pep talk. As a current educator, I draw inspiration from her tact and poise as a professor. Thank you for all that you’ve done for me! ”
