“UNK was very hands-on,” said Kay-linda (Holmes) DeTurk, a 2014 gradu-ate from Miller, Neb., who completed both the interior design and elemen-tary education program requirements. “We drafted, we colored, we did CAD work, we created client boards and de-veloped models. One of the best things about UNK is that the classes are small so you really get to know your classmates and teachers. I was with the same 10 people for most of my interior design classes, and you really learned a lot about each other – their design style, their strengths and weakness-es, everything from personal lives to dreams. Some of my greatest UNK memories are from late nights in the lab.” DeTurk interned with the Buckle. “I loved everything about my internship. The hands-on experience with real deadlines was an extreme eye opener to me.” DeTurk is now a store designer for the Buckle and part of Buckle’s project team.
“I picked my major because I wanted to help others design their home ac-cordingly to reflect their lifestyle,” said Ellyn Gonnerman, a 2012 UNK grad-uate who majored in interior design. “The professors have great experience and knowledge of what occurs in the field, what programs to use, how to operate in professional environments and how to optimize a situation.”
Gonnerman says the classroom experience is even more enjoyable because of the student-to-professor ratio. “The one-on-one time increases the opportunity to learn more, and students are pushed to go the extra mile and think outside the box to find solutions for the project at hand. Professors dedicate their time and attention to all of the students, and I believe that reflects in the students’ work and how they carry out their own goals and objectives during their career.” Gonnerman now is a special projects coordinator for Portfolio Kitch-en and Home in Kansas City, Mo.

Alumni profile
For Americans, 90% of our lives
are spent indoors. Every one of those spaces is designed by someone...and
you could be that someone.
“I have always had a passion for art and design, and after taking my first interior design classes, I knew I was in the right field. I love the hands-on classes and being so close
to my professors. They know all the students on a personal level, and we are more than just a number here at UNK.”

STUDENT PROFILEJacque Star from Hershey, Neb.
STUDENT PROFILESamantha Rohmiller from Lawton, Iowa
“When I came on a visit, I loved the size of the campus, and out of all the places I went to see, UNK seemed like the best fit for me,” said Samantha Rohmiller, an interior design major from Lawton, Iowa. “I went to a small high school, so UNK was a nice tran-sition. I originally was a graphic design ma-jor, then changed. Once I switched, I loved the courses and the people, and stayed in the program. The best thing about the family
studies and interior design department is the student-faculty ratio. At UNK, you are able to form great connections with the students and get to know your professors very well.”
