During my first semester, I wish I would have known...

how easy it is to talk to professors. My first semester is the only semester that I didn't talk to at least one of my professors on a regular basis

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

Quadmania. It's the end of year celebration and the Retriever Music Society was performing. We were rehearsing for months to prepare, and all day leading up to the performance. Finally seeing the performance on stage was great and all the work behind it was so worth it.

Favorite Spot on Campus

The outdoor patio near the Chemistry Building. It's a quiet place and I spent a lot of time there the summer after my sophomore year.

Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Organic Chemistry. Even though it was hard I really felt like I learned a lot. Dr. Gierasch was really engaging and helpful.
