Christi Schweninger always loved horses and dreamed of working with them. But she didn’t know how to make that dream a reality until she discovered WVU’s Equine Studies program. Her classes opened her eyes to new career possibilities—and a horse industry tour in Ireland inspired her to plan a future nurturing new generations of thoroughbreds.

Schweninger’s story is just one of many in which students at WVU have pursued their passions while studying at the University. You can read more about her and students like her at http://projectme.wvu.edu/.
