Student Testimonial: Dan Goebel

Name - Dan Goebel
Major/Program at Iowa Lakes - Sales & Marketing Management
Year graduated from Iowa Lakes - 1998
Current Occupation - Development, Marketing and Enrollment Director for Spalding Catholic School

Favorite campus activity or college involvement - Leadership team / Student Council: We planned activities and events for students, DECA team, intramural sports, playing cards in the dorms, and many other activities!
Favorite college instructor/professor/staff - Mrs. Denise Reimer (her husband, Greg, was great too). Really, I don't think I had a teacher I didn't like!
How did your time at Iowa Lakes prepare you for your career or further education? - I appreciated the hands-on learning that I received at Iowa Lakes. We learned from the textbooks, but we also applied that knowledge to real life scenarios. I really enjoyed how Denise taught in a practical, yet creative manner. One of the quotes I remember hanging in our classroom (and Denise referred to from time to time) was "Good enough never is!". I've tried to live and work as if I can always give or do better.
