When Matt Weirich joined the QUEST program as a freshman, he had already started two of his own businesses and was in the process of getting two patents. How did he do all of this before even starting college? I had the chance to sit down with Matt and learn more.

Cohort 36 Tackles the QUEST Conference
Before the QUEST Conference on December 8th, the air was thick with both nerves and energy for the students in Cohort 36. In the night ahead, they would show friends, family, corporate partners, alumni, faculty, and staff all of the hard work they had put in with their clients this semester.
Thank You, Dr. Bailey
In your life, there are some people who have a profound impact on you as an individual. It could be a grandparent, coach, or director who believes in you and sees your potential even when you don’t see it in yourself. Dr. Joe Bailey is that person for countless people in QUEST. He has been with QUEST since 2009, and I have been amazed by the number of people that he has had a profound impact on during my four years in the QUEST program. It is a testament to not only who he is as a person but also how lucky we have been to have Dr. Bailey in our community. As he moves on to his new role as Interim Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs at the Smith School of Business, I wanted to talk to some QUEST students about the impact he’s made on them.
Congratulations December Graduates
We are so proud of the eleven QUESTees who graduated this fall. I was able to speak with two of them, Kunal Parikh and Joy Tijani, to get their perspectives on their time in QUEST here at Maryland as well as ask them about the future.
A Fun-Filled Fall with Our QUEST Student Orgs
With the end of the fall semester, now is the perfect time to look back and see all of the exciting events that QUEST students got to partake in this semester. I had a chance to speak to the leaders of a few different QUEST student organizations to reflect with them!
