Favorite Class: I have a hard time choosing just one favorite class, but I really enjoyed Psychology of Perception. It was overall a really interesting course and I loved how engaging the class was.

Favorite Place on Campus: My favorite place on campus is between the grove and the library! I love reading outside but I also probably spend the most time in the library.

Clubs/Organizations: I’m a part of the Psychology Affiliation (we haven’t had many meetings this semester so it has not been very active). I do, however, love the sense of community and everyone else in the club is very helpful and kind.

Future Plans: I don’t have many concrete future plans as I’m still unsure as to what exactly I want to do in psychology (the options are limitless). However, I do plan to do an internship at some point and would to become more active in my life.

Favorite Inspirational Quote: “It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do” – Jane Austen

Advice for First-Year Students: Don’t be afraid to talk to people! Everyone is nervous but nobody talks about it. Find people you feel comfortable with, don’t be afraid to join clubs, and attend events! It’s a great way to make friends :)
