Miscellaneous student resources

This section is slightly out of place for now, but I’ll relocate it once I find a more suitable spot. It includes resources I either wish I had discovered earlier or found helpful.

Software

• Tableau – free for students
• GitHub Pro Membership – free for students. Comes with a ton of extra perks too, but they change from year to year. I missed out on a lot by not checking back each year to see if there were any new offerings.

Items

• Customized graduation stoles (study abroad focused)
