Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Debating America, which was a first-year seminar where we learned about the origins of political ideologies and how they affected American thought and policy. It was very interesting to learn why people believe certain ideologies!

Favorite Spot on Campus

There are these big windows with benches on the first floor of the library. During the week, it’s too loud to actually study there but on the weekends, it’s a beautiful place to see a lot of campus and get a ton of natural sunlight. I could sit there for hours.

Fun Fact

I LOVE all things Disney! I’ve been to Disney World, on a Disney Cruise, and I’ve watched almost every single Disney animated film and Disney Channel movie. My favorites are The Lion King and Tangled!

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

There is this Chinese restaurant 10 minutes away from campus called Little Phoenix. It is so good!!! Some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had!
