“My time at LC State prepared me for graduate studies at Gonzaga and a career in public accounting in Seattle. Four years after graduating from LC State I am now earning more than double what I was earning before I enrolled, and have a solid career path in front of me. I’m thankful for all the business and accounting faculty that invested so much in my growth and allowed me to flourish as a student and an accountant.” - Chris Gummeson ‘14 (online), Tax Staff Accountant, KBF CPAs
