Why did you choose Towson University?
I choose Towson University for two reasons. The first is that TU is a really good education school and one of the largest producers of teachers in the state. Their education program is rigorous and I'm excited to be apart of it. My other reason is their study abroad program. TU really prides itself on welcoming national students and encouraging its students to study abroad as well, which is something I've wanted to do since I was in middle school. Hopefully, I'll finally be able to do it during my time here at Towson.
Favorite Spot on Campus
My favorite spot on campus (dining wise) is definitely Au Bon Pain. You will probably always find me there during lunch because it is my go to spot for food. Otherwise, I do spend a lot of time in West Village Commons simply because it is closer to where I live on campus and is a great study spot for myself.
On a random day, you’ll most likely find me …
Either doing my work in the quiet room at my dorm or reading somewhere on campus. I'm trying to get out of my dorm more this semester, so when the weather's nice, you can most likely find me outside with my current read!
How has TU helped you grow?
TU has really helped me expand my horizons more than ever. I'm typically a very introverted person, but joining different clubs on campus and gaining leadership positions in them have helped with my people skills and made me a little bit more comfortable being in the spotlight/talking more freely about what I love.
