I love the spirit and pride at this school. There is nothing like it. The school also sets you up for success by giving you so many opportunities to get experience and get ahead.

Chloe

Freshman · Teaching / Education

I pledged a sorority my first semester and made a lot of friends. I was able to get involved with my major right away and next year I will be a paid Ambassador for new students. Additionally, I have the opportunity to travel to Italy this summer and study the Reggio Emelia approach to education.
