Describe your college experience
My college experience has been rough because I’ve had a hard time making friends. At UW you definitely have to find your own community to feel like you belong here.
Tip for future students
Find your friends and your community.
Favorite class
Bio 200, it was my first exposure to molecular biology. I also enjoyed Ling 269, this class was about swear words and taboo language, it was super fun to learn about how people swear, why people swear, and the difference classes of different swear words
