What did you study in college?
I will be graduating with my Bachelor's of Interdisciplinary Studies in Organization
and Communication of Ideas in Fall 2019. I plan to begin working on my Master’s in
Student Affairs in Higher Education soon!
What’s your favorite spot on WKU’s campus?
My favorite spot on campus is the Colonnades. This place served as my favorite spot
to study, do homework, hang out with friends, and catch a tan!
Advice for new hilltoppers?
Allow yourself to get out of your comfort zone. Join the club that looks fun, go Greek
if you’d like, take that class that looks interesting, and most importantly don’t
be afraid! Allow yourself to have fun and make new connections through involvement
and change. Being involved was one of the most important aspects of my college career.
I found some of my best friends through joining organizations and I also found a passion
for higher education. You never know who you will meet, and you may just find your
purpose!
What is your favorite time of year at WKU?
My favorite time of year on campus is spring. Be sure to take a stroll through Centennial
Mall when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. You’ll be happy that you did!
