"I felt like Dr. K had wonderful points about using storytelling to open up people's eyes to show them the real side of the people within these mountains. I plan to use what he has taught me to share my stories to people to help them better understand how these people work, show how much they care for others, and show how much they sacrifice for their family and community." - Alice Lloyd College Student
