What do you like most about being an Honors student?

My favorite part of being an Honors Student is the community in Pickerl. I have made so many friends and Dr. Bierly is awesome.

Leadership and involvement at STATE:

I am involved in the sport management social media team, Honors Council, Cru, and CSF. I work in the Athletics department as a Student Media Relations Assistant. I look forward to getting involved in more things next year.

What advice do you have for incoming Honors students?

My advice for incoming Honors Students is to push through the first few weeks of school and try to attend events on campus. Get involved right away as hard as it may seem. I also encourage people to be friendly to others because other freshmen feel the exact same way.
