Describe your college experience
Being an out of state student made me worry in the beginning, as I knew no one from my school going here, but I was able to find my people right away, both in the band, and in the dorms. I've made friends that will last a lifetime and gained experiences that will stay with me forever.
Tip for future students
I suggest that you try to get out of your bubble from time to time. I started as a very introverted student. Through my 4 years, though, I feel more comfortable being myself, and I feel more connected with those around me.
Favorite class
My favorite class has been the Art of Being Human. Though it was one of my non-major related classes, I enjoyed learning about various forms of art, discussions of AI in art, and being able to look deeply into my own shows from a different perspective.
Career goals
After graduation, I will be working as an actuarial analyst while continuing my education in my actuarial society.
Ideal way to spend a free night
My ideal way to spend a free night is playing board games with friends or cooking something that I haven't tried before
