Why SG? I served on the class councils for both my freshman and sophomore years and wanted to be more involved this year. Student Government is a great forum to foster student-faculty/staff relationships and to promote community among your individual class and the larger student body.
About me: I am from the great state of Minesoooota! and yes I say it how its spelt. I love my family: my mom, dad, and sister, and Rocky my dog! I also am a huge fan of the Twins and Vikings. I have no idea what I want to do after Wheaton...maybe Teach For America...but I know God will use me for his will.
Why Wheaton? Incorporation of Faith and Learning.
What would you like to achieve by being a part of Student Government this year? Parking reform and Cheaper Meal plans!
When you’re not studying or working on projects, where can you be found on campus? I love to lay in a hammock on Blanchard Lawn
Describe Wheaton in three words: Grace covered community
What makes Wheaton unique? 151 years as a Christian institution....is there any other College/University like that?
Favorite campus event: Roller Disco!!!
How has the Wheaton Community impacted you? It is so uplifting to be part of a Christian environment covered by the grace of God. Every day I can wake up knowing that the men and woman around me have decided to follow Christ through their academic, athletic, and musical abilities. I cherish the Christian brothers and sisters who I can grow alongside each day.
