The facilities and resources were outstanding, which made for a very pleasant collaborative learning environment and campus. I made great connections and friendships there. I also took advantage of living on a Caribbean Island and discovered a love of scuba diving.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Dr. Joseph El-Khoury, MD \u201902, expresses how being a student at SGU was \u201can important and solid steppingstone\u201d for him. \u201cIt was an incredible mix of a studious and serious academic environment alongside Caribbean sunsets, wonderful food, and beautiful scenery.
