I would say our school is best known for its music program. Although we have many majors worthy of recognition, we are often thought of as a music school. The music faculty is absolutely amazing, and the administration of the university has backed the music progam 100 percent since its very beginning. Most colleges may make musicians feel second rate, but Lee has always believed that persuing music is no less important than being an educator or a doctor. They have tirelessly worked and reshaped this department to make it one of the best degrees on campus.

My school is best known for the encouragement and discipline placed upon the students to achieve great tasks ahead whether it be on the workfield after a four-year study or in pursuit of higher education (which the university also provides).
