What is your favorite spot-on campus?
Definitely the pond! I loved getting a coffee at either Starbucks in the Library or Saxby’s and sitting by the pond and spending time outside relaxing or studying.
What is your favorite Millersville University tradition and/or event?
Homecoming! As a member of the Student Alumni Association, we were always actively involved in MU Homecoming whether we were taking alums on campus tours, walking in the parade handing out candy or working in the alumni tent! I loved building floats every year based on the theme of the parade. It was a TON of work but so fun and rewarding walk in the parade with my friends on homecoming morning!
Why are you interested in staying connected and involved with MU as a recent graduate?
I want to stay connected to Millersville because I loved my time at the Ville and I want to make sure current and prospective students have the same opportunities and wonderful experiences that I did! #MarauderForLife!
