WVU International Studies Program

Our next INTS graduate spotlight shines on Logan Pierce! He is a INTS and POLS double major with a Leadership Studies minor. Logan was also named one of this year’s WVU Outstanding Seniors! Learn more about Logan below:

Proudest accomplishment: Growing into the person that I am so proud of today because of all the experiences and opportunities I had the privilege to take advantage of.

Favorite memory: Being able to help future Mountaineers feel a little more comfortable about choosing INTS and WVU as their home away from home during my role as Eberly Ambassador.

Next Up: Full-time temp job with WVU Government Relations for my gap year

A piece of advice: Live in the moment, don't always chase the next best thing; pat yourself on the back when good things happen.

Congratulations, Logan!
