Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Robert Anderson- He makes sure the class is engaging with all his personal stories and humor. He also makes sure we learn things as students and aren't left behind when learning new topics.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

The bonfire! It felt like the first time I really felt the UMBC community.

My UMBC hack is...

Getting my food 10 minutes BEFORE class if needed to avoid the rush (especially in the mornings).

What makes UMBC home?

The people that you surround yourself with and see everyday.
