What has been your favorite class at SCU and why?
Acting for Non-majors with Kimberly Hill because it was a fun and easy class where we got to play games and really get to know our fellow classmates.
What is your favorite activity to do at SCU?
My favorite activity would have be either lifting weights or playing basketball in the Malley Fitness Center.
What advice would you give to the Class of 2012?
Just be yourself and don’t be afraid to introduce yourself to new people. You should be very social for the first couple of weeks because that’s how you’re going to make some of your closest friends.
Why do you love SCU?
I love the community at Santa Clara. Almost everyone is so friendly and outgoing.. You’ll be amazed at the amount and variety of people you will meet. I also love the small class sizes because they have given me a chance to really interact with my professors and achieve a level of friendship with some of them that would have never been possible at a bigger school.
