Describe your college experience
The best decision I've ever made!
Tip for future students
It may sound like a big school, but it truly doesn't feel like one.
Favorite class
My writing class, "Writing About Personal Experiences", was definitely one of my favorites. In one class, our professor took away our phones and had us wander alone through a garden for 90 minutes. It was such a simple exercise, but it forced me to slow down and reflect on things I usually move past too quickly.
Career goals
I have many different interests, so I am excited to see where they all take me after college!
Ideal way to spend a free night
A dinner in Charlottesville at the downtown mall with friends!
