MACOMB/MOLINE, IL - - Being a Leatherneck is all about strength and standing out, according to Western Illinois University Management instructor Andre DuPlessis.
"(They are) strong and resilient," Du Plessis said. "I am a part of a great team."
Du Plessis works on the WIU-Quad Cities campus and serves on the Supply Chain Management Advisory Board at WIU and has expertise in Business Strategy, International Management and Project Management. He said WIU gives students an advantage that other universities may not be able to provide.
