The opportunities here are tremendous. You find yourself, your abilities, your future and your desires solely from this one program. If only I could stock-market-style invest in it! Jeffrey Grinberg Francis Lewis High School, Class of 2012 Binghamton University, Class of 2016 The VE experience is different than any other class in the fact that it is not sugar coated. What you receive from the program is real, and can help you make decisions with what you want to do after school.
