Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

If you're ever in the mood for a burger, Boardwalk Fries and Burgers is a good place to go.

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.
