    My favorite way to engage on campus is through the activities I am involved in. I get to work with very talented and passionate people as part of the process.

  • Cadyn posing outside. She is wearing a black tank-top dress.

    There are so many opportunities to join clubs, and it’s super easy to create your own! College Outdoors allows me to go on fun trips on the weekends. I also know a lot of people who live in the Living-Learning Communities, and they love the sense of community it provides.

  • Zoe Sanderson BA '24

    The biggest challenges I have faced here are the same challenges I would face at any other institution. Because of how many different types of people are at this college, it was hard to find mypeople. But once I did, I was really happy to be here.
