Favorite quote: "A civilized society is one which tolerates eccentricity to the point of doubtful sanity." - Robert Frost
Why did you choose Shippensburg University? I chose Shippensburg majorly due to the close-knit community the campus has. The happy and helpful attitudes of the staff and faculty really stood out when deciding on which school to choose.
What is your favorite thing that Ship has to offer? My favorite thing about Ship is the crazy amount of clubs on campus! There is always something going on to keep campus exciting, and it makes it very easy to get involved.
What is your advice to incoming students? A piece of advice I would give to incoming students is to get to know your professors and advisor. They are friendly and helpful, and genuinely want you to succeed.
