Drosdal’s experiences at MSU and in the Broadcasting and Professional Communication department have prepared him for his continued education and career path. 

“They definitely helped me get a glimpse of what to expect in my career and I don’t think I could’ve gotten that anywhere else,” Drosdal said. “It was that first-hand experience you can only get in our department that really helped me make sure and discover that Broadcasting was for me.”
