Why JustCo? Because social justice issues have always fired me up.
About me: I grew up in the best united state of America, Colorado, and have lived in the same house all my life. I have two older sisters, my parents, and a yellow lab named Emmett. My oldest sister Leslie went to Wheaton and I thought it was a sick school so here I am. I hope to study the ocean after Wheaton, or at least be near it… marine biology is my dream.
Why Wheaton? Wheaton was always been my top choice but I was put on the wait-list so I kind of put it on the back burner and enrolled at the University of Colorado. I was all set to go to CU but then two weeks before the start of school, Wheaton called me and said that they had a spot for me. It was such a crazy last minute change of plans, but it was obvious that's where the Lord wanted me. So I came even though I didn't want to, but it has been a WILD blessing.
Most memorable experience at Wheaton: Going to HoneyRock with my floor, 4South.
What makes Wheaton unique? It's cliché but true, the people are prime.
