Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Dr. Carolyn Forestiere is one of the brightest, most dedicated professors I have met thus far. She piqued my interest in a subject I had never enjoyed learning about before.

Favorite Spot on Campus

Though it's not the most comfortable, the wooden stairs in the Commons is a good place to do work. There are many outlets for electronics and it is a bright open space.

I chose UMBC because...

it is not too far from home and has a great program for my major.

My advice to prospective students...

is college is what you make it, you do not need to have everything figured out right away. There will be time to try new things and find your passion!
