What was the final factor that made you say "yes" to LU's offer of admission?

The warm welcome I received from faculty, staff and students when I came to visit and audition. Everyone helped in easing my nerves and made me feel much more comfortable and excited about Lawrence. I felt well taken care of and attended to.

What is the best course you’ve taken at LU?

Freshman Studies. The course helped develop skills that I continue to use throughout my college career, including writing, communicating and critical thinking and reading.

What is an interesting/helpful fact you learned about LU after you came here?

I’ve learned that when discovering how to manage your busy schedule, you can’t forget to schedule time to have fun and relax – it’s the only way you’ll stay sane. :)

 

 

What is your fondest memory of your roommate from freshman year?

My very first weekend I moved into Lawrence I fell ill with pneumonia and strep throat, and had to spend the night in the hospital. My roommate, who I had known for only a few days, spent the majority of the night there with me, and when I arrived back to the dorm, she had little chocolates and a card for me.

What is your favorite thing to do in Appleton?

Grabbing coffee or food with friends or professors downtown, at any of the various shops or restaurants.

 

 

If you were a crayon or paint swatch, what color would you be?

I would be any iridescent color so I could trick people. Now you see me, now you don’t!

What is an uncommon hobby you have, and why do you like it?

Yes. It’s called CDD – actually more of a disorder than a hobby. Compulsive Dancing Disorder – can break out at any time – usually at the most inappropriate or inopportune moments.

What is something LU helped you learn about yourself?

Lawrence has taught me how to explore different areas of interest, and how to manage all the things I want to do. It has taught me how to be able to participate in theatre, music, and various organizations, activities and volunteer opportunities. I have learned how to properly manage such activities in order to fulfill my commitment to them all, and to excel in them.
