Chandra Swanson

"I found Colorado Mountain College's programs to be the best blend of academia and technical skills I needed for transferability to a four-year university and the opportunity to work immediately in the field. To any student considering the Outdoor Recreation Leadership Program I would say: don't hesitate. Your instructors will be excellent and passionate about what they do, and you'll be pushed to the extreme in the best way possible. I genuinely feel the experiences and instruction I received at CMC prepared me for a future in any outdoor profession of my choosing."

After graduating from CMC with degrees in both Outdoor Recreation Leadership and Outdoor Education, Chandra Swanson transferred to Oregon State University, where she is pursuing a bachelor's degree in Cultural Anthropology. Chandra works for the Pike & San Isabel National Forest.
